Application of intellect reveals how pointless our lives are: We live for a short span and are confined to one world among billions. But wisdom and maturity dictate that we try our absolute best, and enjoy every second of it. Because if our time is fleeting, then why not? Shallow dips into indulgence leave us thirsty and wanting, while those deep stretches of soulful effort yield a great, quenching richness.

Yes, and as you age, and time becomes more fleeting, it becomes ever more precious. You can only do so much, so choose the best when you have a choice.

But your tincture of self is timeless and nests often so why worry about one nest and one and one tree.
