What truly matters in this life? Is it Power? Is it friends? Family? Ones talents? Love? Hope? To arrive at the answer you have to ask yourself another question, what makes you, you? Memory. The culmination of your life experiences, your good days, the bad, people you've met, people who hurt you, it all isn't so bad when you realize you still exist. You can keep making memories. Though not all arrive at this conclusion so quickly, some spend their entire lives searching for this answer. Some spend their lives chasing dreams or wants, sure dreams are good. They encourage us to strive for greater things, but if you let them consume you....you miss what truly matters in life. Thus we arrive back at the question, now I ask you. "What Truly Matters In Life?" For one such soul to find the answer, it cost him more than he could ever hope to loose.
