• Some people live their lives as if each day will be their last. Some approach love the same way, in a desperate attempt to outrun the tiny changes
  or huge ones that are always looming on each of our horizons. But the sense of urgency that comes from wanting to experience life and love to the
  fullest can force decisions that are not always in your best interests or anyone else's, for that matter. In fact, sometimes facing the consequences of
  your choices can be even worse than death. You may live only once, but you don't necessarily want it to feel like forever.
