Forever Living

Forever?! Living forever was never something I imagined 5 years ago. I was chronically sick 15 years ago and I just didn't know the severity of these illnesses. I didn't even know I was on the verge of experiencing death multiple times in my early 30's. At that time of course I wanted to live forever. I just had one wish and it was to have a child. I was so sick that I couldn't get pregnant.

I feel like I have ran this story to the ground a million times; but, again forever was never something I ever considered. Now, I want to live to see my daughter grow to be an adult. I want to see her in her sweet sixteen dress, and I want to see her have her own child. It is so crucial that I make the changes needed to see this through. It is so important to me that this baby experiences unconditional love and if it takes me being alive forever; than, that's what I want to do.

Forever, and ever, and ever, and ever, lol. I want to live forever. I wish to live somewhere where the temperature is unimaginably cold, I want to fly across the ocean to another culture and try their food, I want my poetry to be on a shelf in the New York Public Library in New York, NY. These things might happen overnight or they might take forever.

When they say life is short, that's not true all the time. Living like the day is your last is completely different. Enjoy the moments that you will cherish forever. Tell them you love them, send them a present, and give them a hug. The days that will make your heart flutter. You just never know when that time will be up.
