Quickly, Life Can Turn

Janet Kuypers
6/7/19, on twitter and Instagram and Tumblr

Most days are just that, average, uneventful.
The monotony can become your purgatory;
but know how quickly life can turn, in an
instant, beyond your control — so embrace
every moment, cherish the details, revel in life.
