Even the wrong words seem to rhyme.

Life is beautiful.
It really is.

We all take life for granted.
Don't even start.
You know you do.

You SAY you value every minute.
You SAY you cherish the people in your life.

And yet, so easily, we lash out... get frustrated...

Sometimes it's just so easy to forget how fleeting life really is...

Or if you're like me,
you are so focused on your goal that you forget to just... breathe.
Gotta study for this quiz to be ready for this exam to get good grades to be ready for the MCAT to get into Medical School to get into a good residency program.......
It never ends.

But one thing I've tried to do, especially lately is to just
stop.
look around.
Breathe.

Did you say it? "I love you. I don't want to ever live without you. You changed my life." Did you say it? Make a plan. Set a goal. Work toward it, but every now and then, look around. Drink it in cause this is it. It might all be gone tomorrow. - Grey's Anatomy




And of course -- since I'm me, I can relate it back to Jonas as well...

Don't forget to take a breath.


Me ke aloha pau ole a hui ho.
