7. The best thing about life is that it's short.

Mon Jun 29, 2026, 06:13 PM

Monday

It flies by for most of us. I don't know why we're born, but I think it's important to do good things, and you have done a lot for others. So just know that you have led a good life and before you know it, it'll all be over. Take care of yourself, too, Lucky Charms, and try to enjoy the time you have left.
