"What will you do today, knowing that you are one of the rarest forms of life to ever walk the Earth? How will you carry yourself? What will you do with your hands? ... Tomorrow you could die ... but today you are precious and rare and awake ... Grateful and awake, ask what you need to know now. Say what you feel now. Love what you love now."
