Greetings dear Human,
It was long ago when I and you were put together but we never get along. So very much wanted to bring this book to you that may tell you what I feel when you disregard me, how it shatters me to pieces, and how I so very much wanted to bring you on track every time I saw one of you being ungrateful for having. The world ultimately ends up into nothingness what remains is the way you lived. Try living me in the best possible way since I do not happen again and again. I am once and for all. Don't just survive me, live me...!
Yours and only yours,
-Life
