Stop Worrying About Getting Old

Stop Being a Faggot

Listen, faggot.

You’re not old.

Actually, maybe you are old.

Maybe you’ve always been old.

Maybe you’re boring as shit

Your life isn’t exciting

And you’re just

Waiting to die.

That’s a lot of people. That’s most people.

Are you one of those people?

Imagine an old man who wasted his whole life

Worrying about getting old.

Then one day, he is old.

He’s so old that

That he can’t even

Wipe his own ass

After he takes a shit.

He has to ask his wife, or his nurse

To help him.

He doesn’t remember

His children’s names.

They cry

When they realize

He doesn’t know who they are.

He can’t go a single day without living

In chronic pain.

He’s old.

He hates it.

And one day

He realizes.

He wasted his 20’s. His 30’s. His 40’s

His youth

Worrying

About getting old

Online

Like a giant

Faggot.

That’s going to be a lot of you.

Unless

You stop acting like

Such a faggot.

And live your live.

Stop thinking about how fucking old you are.

Do you know what cortisol is?

Cortisol is the hormone that gets released

When you’re stressed.

Cortisol makes you fat.

Cortisol gives you anxiety.

Cortisol makes you depressed.

Cortisol damages your collagen.

Cortisol makes your skin less elastic.

Cortisol ages you.

So while you’re worrying about

Getting old

You are, in fact,

Creating

A self-fulfilling prophesy

By acting like

Such a faggot.

One day

You are going to die.

And you don’t know how.

Chances are

“It won’t be cinematic.”

You might just

Have a heart attack

And keel over.

Poof.

That’s it.

Lights out.

Story’s over.

Like a squashed bug.

Dead.

“But something happens to me after!”

Maybe.

Maybe not.

You don’t know that.

And I don’t know that.

Nobody knows that.

That’s why it’s called Faith.

Life is best lived

Under the assumption that

Nothing happens

After you die.

Because then

At least you know

That this is your only chance

To live

Before you die

Which one day

You will

You are going to die.
