What's to come? What's to come.
"Everything is only for a day, both that which remembers and that which is remembered. Always run the short way and the short way is natural. Observe constantly that all things take place by change, and accustum thyself to consider that the nature of the universe loves nothing so much as to change things which are, and to make new things like them. For everything that exists is in a manner the seed of which will be." -John Steinbeck's EoE

Do we sit and dilapidate away, withering to the sounds of chainsaw racket of luberjacks and sights of shiny metals tools in doctor's hands? When do we initiate our standing up? Our walking towards a destination?
DESTINATION: : the purpose for which something is destined.
Once again... is our purpose predetermined? No it is not. I won't let it be.
