Gone. Just Like That.

I love reading stories. You never know what random sentences might hit hard or make prime examples for life.

Here’s a recent one:

“One minute to fill out the form, two minutes to review it.

A man’s entire life was wrapped up in just three minutes.”

Fluff in your head.

Nothing anyone will remember.

But what you do?

That’s what counts.

And for whom.
