Oh, I will love you forever and ever.

Learn this, nothing’s forever. Not that wad of money you’re holding, not that goddamn over-priced purse you carry, not that make-up covered pretty face, not your friends, nor your lover. No, nothing’s forever. All that will rot to dust and disappear, cover with wrinkles to be consumed by insects, to betray you and forget you. So, learn this, nothing is forever don’t waste your joyousness on anything or anyone. In the end, few of you are fortunate to have yourselves, if barely. The rest of you have no one, not yourselves because you will betray yourself. You will give yourself to the rest of society. Force yourself to be anything other than yourself. Sink yourself into a shallow nothingness. There is no one. So, take that fleeting piece of happiness and satisfaction and smother it before it learns you, knows you, and slaughters you.
