When you're young, your whole life is about the pursuit of fun, then you grow up and learn to be cautious; you could break a bone, or a heart. You look before you leap and sometimes you don't leap at all because there's not always someone there to catch you. And in life, there is no safety net. When did it stop being fun and start being scary?

"We Die. That may be the meaning of life. But we do language. That may be the measure of our lives."

Read it. Yes it is a little long, and you can even listen to it. But take the time to listen to it or read it, you won't be disappointed. I PROMISE. Blew me away, and made me think about a lot of things. Wow. I think I'm gonna really like my Toni Morrison class.
goodnight
