Forever Quote by C. JoyBell C
““I don't understand people who are obsessed with making things last. We don't even last! Don't we all die? But is that what matters? Because I think what matters is that we lived! A boy once asked me, "What if we don't last forever? That's my fear." I told him, "Why would that matter, after we've already lived?””
