Life

I’ll be pleasantly surprised if I get to 50. My 20’s and 30’s were spent with pretty unsavoury people in a pretty dark world.
I expect it to come back and bite me on my arse one day.
 
It's unbearably cruel at times.

Found out about 06:30 this morning that a good friend of mine lost their 2 year old daughter yesterday afternoon.

I cannot even begin to imagine their worst nightmare.

I don't recall the last time tears rolled down my face it's been that long. This news hit me like a sledgehammer. I struggled to concentrate in work this morning.

Life - it's wonderful yet unspeakably tragic in equal measure.

Sad news. You can never take it for granted.
 
The memories of a man in his old age
Are the deeds of a man in his prime.
You shuffle in gloom of the sickroom
And talk to yourself as you die.
Life is a short, warm moment
And death is a long cold rest.
You get your chance to try in the twinkling of an eye:
Eighty years, with luck, or even less.

That’s fucking awful and puts a lot into perspective.
