Description
This is a quote from me.This is more of a reminder to me than anything else.
This is one of those 'Only got 100 years to live'. 'Carpe diem'. 'Seize the day'. 'Gather ye rosebuds while ye may'. Ect. ect. kind of stamps.
My point is: get your priorities straight and then live your life accordingly. (I have a hard time with that. But I hope to work on it.)
Once that moment goes by, you can't revisit it, do it over again to get it right, or anything.
There are many times in my life I look back and think "Man! I wish I could do that over again. I really messed up." But I can't. This is just a reminder to me that life is fragile and you only get one chance to live it.
"Everybody dies, but not everyone lives." - [link]
"But with life we never know when we're coming up to the end of the road
So what do we do then
With tragedy around the bend
We live, we love, we forgive and never give up
Cuz the days we are given are gifts from above
And today we remember to live and to love"
"he asks why did I wait to live 'til it was time to die
If I could have the time back, how I'd live
Life is such a gift
So how does the story end?
Well, this is your story and it all depends
So don't let it become true
Get out and do what we were meant to do"- [link]
"We rock forever, we stop whenever
We die whenever, we live together
It's a phenomenon that can't be stopped now" - [link]

Ooo I just love this stamp!!
The meaning behind it is great and so true too! I find that can be the oddest thing to think about, that we've only really got one shot for sure, and no matter how hard things may be, that's just how it is. I know for myself, it's weird to think about the way I've lived, and amusing to think what I would do differently if I could have another shot [mostly bad things though, I'm such a goody two shoes XD] But it's just...weird, because one day we're all going to have a moment where we just stop and think about or realize what exactly we've accomplished or have done in our lives...[Or maybe not everyone will but, you get my point] Strange...
Anywho! The stamp IS very lovely! I love the background color and I like how the text moves across too. It's at a good speed that it's easy to read and the font is simple but lovely too.
I also like how the butterfly begins the piece. ^^

Thanks!
"I find that can be the oddest thing to think about"
Same. Sometimes I wish a year would just get over with, and sometimes I wish I could just keep living in the same year for a long time.
"that we've only really got one shot for sure, and no matter how hard things may be, that's just how it is."
Yep, indeed it is.
"I know for myself, it's weird to think about the way I've lived, and amusing to think what I would do differently if I could have another shot [mostly bad things though, I'm such a goody two shoes XD]"
I think that's the way it is with most of us. We always want to know the best possible outcome and take that one, but there isn't always a map laid out in front of us.
"But it's just...weird, because one day we're all going to have a moment where we just stop and think about or realize what exactly we've accomplished or have done in our lives...[Or maybe not everyone will but, you get my point] Strange..."
Yes, I hope to be a good ripe age of 80 and look back at a life of love, and caring, peace, and truth. Those are good things to want in your life. You know? I don't much care if I'm successful, or rich... but love, now that is something I want throughout my life.
"Anywho! The stamp IS very lovely! I love the background color and I like how the text moves across too. It's at a good speed that it's easy to read and the font is simple but lovely too."
Thank you very much. I wanted it to work on making better backgrounds for my stamps, and that is what I came up with and I really like it. Thank you again. I try to make it both easy to read, but not boring to look at. I can get you the name of the font if you'd like.
"I also like how the butterfly begins the piece. ^^"
Yes, I wanted the butterfly there because I thought of the emote, called "frail", and butterflies are frail, fragile creatures, you can't be too rough with them. Just like how easy it is for our lives to be taken away in a car crash on a normal day out driving. Every day is precious.
Thank you for the wonderful, thought out comment. It means a lot to me.

Well here's to that.
