Nothing To Lose

"Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart." -Steve Jobs 

You will get old. There is no youth potion or scientific breakthrough to stop this. You will die. The world won't end for you, and people may cry when it happens. You might die today. Sorry to be so blunt but it's quite true. Stop acting like you have something to lose. You don't.

Live your life. Do what you love and let no one stop you. Travel. The only thing that's stopping you is yourself and some sick sense of duty or that you're doing the right thing by not doing what you love. "But, I can't do that" you say. "My parents/boyfriend/coworkers would look at me funny!" Name what it is you're afraid of and get over it. 

There is something very freeing about doing something for the mere fact that you want to do it. There isn't much time left. If you don't start living today, when will you?
