Tim Decker, Pete Sukovoty, Chris Long (nka Bakunas) and Mike Tankersley, Alamo, 1985
You have to stop every so often and remind yourself
That there are no do-overs
Anything that is going on in your life
Good or bad
Is only existing for this one elusive moment
That old cliche, stop and smell the roses?
Do it, do it now
There are people alive today, right now
Who will not be here tomorrow
One day you will join their ranks
Live life, invite yourself to the party
Relish the time you have with your friends and family
Time slips by fast
You have to start reminding yourself to breath deeply
The crisp, clean air of the new day
Everything that is going on in your life
Bad or good
Is only what you make of it
That old cliche, this is not a dress rehearsal?
Enjoy it, enjoy it now
There are people dying today, right now
Who never gave a thought about tomorrow
Don't be caught short when the time comes
Live life, invite yourself to the party
Relish the time you have with your friends and family
One day you will join the ranks
Of the travelers who have reached their destinations
