Well I don't think life is too short or too long. I actually took the "live for today" myself, for just about as long as I could...and I didn't stop, I just have so much less energy hahaha.

There is, however, no 2 ways about it: You can play odds but you don't know how much time you have - maybe this is it. It's stupid not to plan at all, but the best laid plans still fall to ruins repeatedly in life. What you do have is your choice of how to live today...

...I always like that "one hand for the ship" saying...it's just so apt.
