I was born with a heart defect.
One day,
it could be today
or it could be tomorrow
or it could be twenty years
from now,
it will kill me.
Living with this defect
has been a blessing in disguise.
I’ve never waited
to make a difference,
have never put off
changing the world
until tomorrow
because I might not have
that tomorrow.
“Remembering that
you are going to die
is the best way I know
to avoid the trap
thinking you have something to lose.
You are already naked.
There is no reason
not to follow your heart.”
You’re only on this earth
for a short time.
Make that time count.
