We really only live once, and yet…

We are all just rabbits chasing carrots above our heads, waiting for this race to finish…and it never will until we die. We spend our lives chasing the prize at the end of the rope, and only some of us win. Most of us are struggling until we’re too old to care, and we want so badly to see the world, but never get around to it because we’re so busy…hoping to finally catch that carrot.

🤣 Okay. Lovely outlook on things. However, some of us realize that the carrot is not very tasty, so we don't chase it.

The carrot is a metaphor, and it can be anything you like. It can be chocolate, strawberries, cake, steak, bread, lasagna, a vegetarian dish, anything. It doesn’t have to be the carrot, and we don’t have to be rabbits. We can be bears, fish, lions, or just us as human beings, but regardless, we are all chasing something, and then we die. Plain and simple. @4meAndyou

@PoisonLace Once again, I love your upbeat attitude...🤣. Yes...I did understand the metaphor.
