these are pictures of dead people

before and after death pictures of cancer patients.

a return to a lesson my dad taught me.

i suppose reading the stories accompanying the photos reminds me why i sometimes feel like maybe i'm getting the whole thing wrong.

and then i think "i could be more caught up in stuff like work and possessions and stuff that really doesn't matter. and i'm getting better all the time."

so maybe less wrong that some folks? i dunno. it's not a contest anyway, is it?

give me experiences. good or bad, i'll take a story every time.

regrets scare me more than anything.
