All Things End 

To everything there is a time that is given 

All things must eventually end 

All things must die 

For new life and new beginnings 

We can plead, beg, and bargain 

But time and death waits for no man 

And no god 

Try as we might we cannot forestall the day or the hour of our death 

Or anyone else’s for that matter 

You cannot stop the inevitable march toward death from the day you are born 

So take heart  

And treasure every moment as if it may be your last 

Or your loved one’s last 

And remember that life is not worth wasting on those who aren’t good or special to you. 

Death can come at any time so hold the ones you love close 

And make enough memories to carry you through their death 

For Death leaves a heartache no can heal 

But love leaves memories no one can steal 

So take this parting wisdom  

Be ever ready to burn that bridge when you get to it 

Be ever ready to burn that bridge when they no longer cause joy in your heart 

Or treat you horrifically on purpose.
