Life expectancy.

A meaningful quote I read today.

"Why be saddled with this thing called life expectancy? Of what relevance to an individual is such a statistic? Am I to concern myself with an allotment of days I never had and was never promised? Must I check off each day of my life as if I am subtracting from this imaginary hoard? No, on the contrary, I will add each day of my life to my treasure of days lived. And with each day, my treasure will grow, not diminish." - Robert Brault.

On days when I feel like life is a slurry of days escaping through my slippery grasp, I'll be sure to read this quote again. :)
