    One can appreciate the sentiment of the quote to value every minute while you have it, but under a more optimistic lens, the quote is not always true. I was 10x unhealthier 20 years ago than today, and I would give anything to never be there again. We all walk a different path.

      I hope I’m going to be you in the future. I’m in my late 20s and straight up not having a good time, health-wise.

      I was physically much more healthy but my life-stress levels were much higher. So glad I’m past that. Now if we can all just do our bit to stop the world sliding into fascism, and of course climate destruction, maybe we’ll be able to look back in 20 years.
