YOLO!
So, we have to live life to the fullest. Big Deal!
It encourages us to experience different things, BOTH the good and the bad,
to step out of our comfort zones.
Yet, why is it that we always seem to associate YOLO with doing just idiotic stuffs?
One day, you'll be just a memory for some people. Do your best to be a good one.
Do you really want to be remembered just as the guy who got hit by a train with his pants down bc he was tied to a railroad, while screaming YOLOOOOOO? SRSLY DUDE! Some ambition you have there! *please note the overwhelming sarcasm*
Or would you rather be remembered as a respected citizen who got a common sense and used his limited life to achieve great heights?
-
After all, you only live once...
Better make your life worthwhile...
Certainly we talk to ourselves; there is no thinking being who has not experienced that. One could even say that the word is never a more magnificent mystery than when, within a man, it travels from his thought to his conscience and returns from his conscience to his thought.
Victor Hugo, Les Misérables
