Your Life, Your Mark
In the grand scheme of things
We are all going to die anyway
No amount of good deeds or pain can save us
Because no matter what we do in life
Our death is inevitable
But if this is true
If our fate is to be nothing
Then shouldn't we live while we can
So then we we are nothing
We leave behind something
Life is supposed to be lived
And it is my belief that taking advantage of this opportunity
Is the ultimate decision
Because if you lived your life to its greatest potential
You will have changed the world for the better
Whether that be making one person happy
Or inspiring countless others
Your life should leave a mark
Your effect on the world
Doesn’t have to be grand
Everyone can change the world
In their own way
That’s what makes it your mark
If you lived your life being you
Instead of the person the world wants you to be
The word different comes along with change
So make a difference by being different
That is the only way you can
In the end we are all going to die
But first....
We must live
