Life. The great human experiment, one that we all partake in. We are born with nothing, arriving by the seat of our pants, kicking and screaming. You didn’t even get to pick your parents; what is done is done. It's time to move on and make sense of it all. Here’s the irony layered on top of that - no owner’s manual exists for any of it. You don’t get a lesson on how to grow up, how to parent, how to grow old, how to deal with dying, or how to accept death. In perhaps a greater dramatic irony, we leave this place almost in reverse; the cycle of life takes us from children to adults - and back again.
