What’s more special than being alive?

I’m imagining this being said by someone actively burning something and smiling over the flames.

Y'all're almost perfectly halving the karma with each comment starting with the luminous one right now and i'm finding it equal parts r/mildlyinteresting and r/satisfyingasfuck

(edit: "y'all are" -> "y'all're" because double contractions are more fun)

Every time you pick up a handful of dust, and see not the dust, but a mystery, a marvel, there in your hand. Every time you stop and think, "I'm alive, and being alive is fantastic!" Every time such a thing happens, you're part of the Circus of Dr. Lao.
