For a long time it seemed to me that life was about to begin real life. But there was always some obstacle in the way, something to be gotten through first, some unfinished business, time still to be served, a debt to be paid.

So treasure every moment you have and remember that time waits for no one. Happiness is a journey, not a destination... Souza
