We strive to look good every day,
Spending cash on clothes and makeup, come what may,
But as we grow old,
And wrinkles take hold,
We'll realize it was all just a fleeting display.
People often spend a lot on their appearance, despite the inevitability of aging and mortality. While it's important to care for oneself, obsessing over looks can neglect other important aspects of life. The point is a reminder to keep priorities in perspective, focusing on personal growth, relationships, and experiences.
