"I had always heard your entire life
flashes in front of your eyes
the second before you die.
First of all, that one second
isn't a second at all, it stretches on
forever, like an ocean of time...
....
I guess I could be pretty pissed off
about what happened to me... but
it's hard to stay mad, when there's
so much beauty in the world.
Sometimes I feel like I'm seeing it
all at once, and it's too much, my
heart fills up like a balloon that's
about to burst...
...and then I remember to relax, and
stop trying to hold on to it, and
then it flows through me like rain
and I can't feel anything but
gratitude for every single moment of
my stupid little life...
You have no idea what I'm talking
about, I'm sure. But don't worry...
You will someday."
-Lester (American Beauty)
