countdown

"Sometimes we live like we have forever.

We have long cold wars.
We fight and don't make peace.
We put off talking about the important things till the next day or week or month.

But out there reality is otherwise.

There are babies who can't breathe without a ventilator.
Little kids with an expiry date on their kidneys.
Cancers that eat away at life savings and family members.
Ex-smokers who fucked up their lungs so bad they can't go two sentences without coughing, or heart failure patients whose hearts are so weak they can't lie down flat at night cos it floods their lungs and they can't breathe.

We don't have infinity.

Every moment counts.
What don't you get?"
