Life

You who are on the road
Must have a code that you can live by
And so become yourself
Because the past is just a good-bye.
Teach your children well,
Their father's hell did slowly go by,
And feed them on your dreams
The one they picks, the one you'll know by.
Don't you ever ask them why, if they told you, you will cry,
So just look at them and sigh
And know they love you.

And you, of tender years,
Can't know the fears that your elders grew by,
And so please help them with your youth,
They seek the truth before they can die.

Teach your parents well,
Their children's hell will slowly go by,
And feed them on your dreams
The one they picks, the one you'll know by.

Don't you ever ask them why, if they told you, you will cry,
So just look at them and sigh and know they love you

And there is a big difference in an old person who passes vs someone who hasn't had a chance to live.

 

That so depends.  The longest human life isn't significant in time.  Hardly a flash.  Given a thousand years at 999 we'd be wanting just another day.  My daughter died at 13 but had, in my opinion, a more happy and successful life than most.  It has been this observation that makes me believe that a successful life is not a matter of years at all.  Very difficult subject without violating TOS, but I did my best.
