Maybe

January 21, 2017

Do people think about

the value of a life,

the value of a person,

measured only through experiences,

partying,

dancing in the rain,

watching sunrises,

hugging grandparents,

loving others,

maybe life isn't worth living if it's for ourselves,

maybe we can't understand the value of a person,

if we don't understand the life they've lived,

maybe it's empathy.
