The one thing I learned, the one thing that marked my transition into adulthood, was the realization that everything will die. No matter what everyone you love, know, or even see on the street will die. Nothing can stop it or slow it down. Death is a force. This is where I start to get lost. The fringe between ignorance and unavoidable knowledge. Everyone has an invisible gun held to their heads. This fact drives me mad. We waste our lives, every second past can never be returned, exchanged, or altered. Even if you get a "never waste a second" attitude on life, how can reclaim those lost doses of time?
