And people want so much from you.

You know, a lot of people want a lot from you and you think you have to lift people up around you and you have to do this heroic effort.

Actually, little text message, little voice note means a lot.

It's interesting.

For me, I figured out that we're on a rock.

We get a few little laps around the sun.

That's it.

We get this, we like literally pop into existence like an electron spinning around a neutron, whatever it is, and we get, we're on the rock.

The most valuable thing is that we're on the rock together.

Like you zoom out enough, we're all just little dots.

We're all just little dots trying to figure stuff out and we're all trying to make sense of our own lives and we're all trying to ignore how difficult things can be.

But then you realise that it's just the fact that we are moving through time together.

But, yeah, as I said, you hit a point where you realise that there is no happy ending.

Unfortunately, there's not.

You know, the ending is sad.

When you hit a certain age, people that you really love get old and die or they get illnesses.

They lose a big chunk of themselves in one fell swoop.

So while those moments are happy, while you've got those happy moments, treasure those happy moments.

Really, really embrace them.

Do you have any regrets in this regard?
