To Muse

Enjoy the life you have been given as though each day might be your last. Do not squander it waiting for another life to begin. Guard the fire within you; feed it, even when all that remains is a handful of embers. Do not let the world extinguish what still burns in your soul. Live fiercely. Love deeply. Wander, create, suffer, heal, and become everything you are capable of becoming. And when your time finally comes, let death find you not merely breathing, but alive; with your heart still burning, your eyes still turned toward tomorrow, and nothing within you left unlived.
