Numbers
9:17 PMIt's crazy, really. Everybody has a number. However infinite life itself is every day is a number and at some point you're gonna run out of numbers; we all are. And the people that know their number live life so differently from the rest of us. They carry around oxygen tanks or try to hold onto every second as if it were their last even though they know quite well it's not because that finite value is burned into their consciousness. But maybe I have even less numbers than the boy in the ICU. Maybe I'll have less numbers than even Itzel did. Because I don't know my number, not yet. And heavy as this is tomorrow could be my last and would knowing that make it more or less of a tragedy? I'm really not sure.
And yes I did just see Fault in our Stars and yes perhaps that makes me a typical teenaged girl but I didn't even really cry I just kind of melted into a puddle on the inside and all these words started swimming and trying to make sense out of life and math and death but it didn't turn out all that well and that's okay.
