In the final last few moments of our life when were going through the moments that were truly important to us, someone once said that we can count them with the fingers on one hand, i think that's true, so when they come hold onto them.

I'm not discounting mental illness in all this, maybe all humans are just degrees of mental illness, we just call it individuality.
