Stop acting as if life is a rehearsal. Live this day as if it were your last. The past is over and gone. The future is not guaranteed.

He who is in love with himself has at least this advantage - he won't encounter many rivals.

Breathe. Let go. And remind yourself that this very moment is the only one you know you have for sure.
