Closer to death

Two decades and three years I have lived. Lived. And that's the only thing that one should appreciate. Life in itself. I have lived to see people become my friends, lived to see them get closer, lived to see my parents happy and proud of my achievements. I also lived to see myself crumble, make wrong decisions, hurting people. Lived to see my dear friend pass away, lived to fight the depression, lived to collide with a person who just blew my mind away. Lived to hate love, lived to love it back all over again.
Life isn't about just living. Life is about creating an impact. People come and go. But how do you want others to remember you by should be your greatest motivation. Because the people you leave behind, the ones who adored you, the ones who sought inspiration in you shouldn't be left disappointed by your loss of interest in your life that they find interesting, cheerful, inspirational and peaceful. 
If scores of people are saying so, it must be true. 
Life is a paradise. Happy Birthday to Shubhra. 
Happy Birthday to you too.
