Why live?
Adding one to my count of days, or postponing
a feared death by another day do not inspire me.

to learn something new, meet a new friend,
bring joy into someone's life,
feel the wind newly on my skin,
touch a new fear, a new anger,
and with focused intent and good fortune,
find an ample measure of my own joy.
