curiosity killed the cat


you spend your whole life wondering what comes after death you forget to live

 

wanting to know what's after death,

you search for answers

you send out questions into the atmosphere

 

you spend too much time looking into the future you never experience the gift of living in the present moment

 

for what is a life quest if all the answers are found at the end?
