Life is short.

You will die.

No one owes you anything in this world.

And there is no key to happiness.

And most of you will die miserable and alone.

There. Now you have all been informed.

Death needn't always come in their beds.

For most, the final understanding alights only when death is swift and sudden. That's always the best sort to watch.

Perhaps I will keep your observations in mind for the future.
