All good things, or moments in life have either happened or passed us by, all chances and moments were here at one time, but they eventually go away, and never come back. Seasons change year in and year out, just like people change. Seasons experience death, leaves die, trees die, plants die, animals die, but they feel no fear for the fate that every change in the season holds. The same goes for the wind, sun, and rain. The Wind eventually stops blowing, the sun eventually stops shining, and the rain eventually stops falling. Once your own personal season, or wind, sun, or rain changes, or ends, you will not always be alone. You don’t need to be afraid, because the one person that has always been there for you in times of need will remain there for you in the very end. You will be able to wait for that person to take your hand, and walk with you into whatever your life after death may bring. Everybody will eventually pass on, and leave loved ones behind, only to be reunited again in a better place. There is nothing to be afraid of, and when your partner joins you in the afterlife, you two can fly away, to whatever place you always dreamed of going. Ultimately, in the end, the love of your life will always be there with you, in life, death, spirit, and soul.

Wouldn't it be great if life actually worked that way?

Wouldn't it be great if the world didn't give birth to people like you?

Well that was obnoxious of you SaintHak. I agree with Gondring
