About This Quote

I think this statement is an obvious statement about how life can be long and long-lasting, yet difficult like a seed that has to be planted in the ground. Life is not easy, but many hard things do not last forever. What if you are living in the present moment and something bad happens? You can live without always thinking of the future or worrying yourself over what happened in the past. What will happen when you become death? A lot of people would say it means you will never die, but I believe it means you won’t remain the same after death either.

You will change. You must live your life to make your mark on this world while you are alive here.
