cherish

you're around for a very short while
and between a quarter and a third of the time you're around
you're asleep

so if you're well
and you have enough to get by then
cherish your life

every waking moment
the good the bad the indifferent the ugly
the highs the lows the thrills and the dull
cherish them all

not every single moment in life is wonderful
but every single moment can be worthwhile if you
learn from the ones that challenge you and draw from the ones that reward you

and if you can't
if your life causes you nothing but pain
then
hold on
seek help
and
learn to change it

step by step
perhaps with setbacks along the way

there is no life
that has nothing in it
to cherish
at all

if that is obvious to you
then you are privileged
cherish that

if you doubt this is so
hold on
be patient
seek help
there is help out there
and wait for the wheel to turn
it will turn
it gets better
day follows night
​
always

what's to cherish
