Years have come and years have gone, and yet here I still am, waiting for a miracle that will never happen. Watching my acquaintances come and go with the times, while I slowly rot away into a cave of loneliness. And while many may ask, ‘Why do you insist on living in such a manner?’, I know it is simply because they do not understand the many subtleties that can make or break a person. It has been a long time since I felt happiness, and even a longer time since I can remember making someone else happy. And yet, I live on, with no apparent reason to validate my existence. Because I know that with every step I take, every decision I make, I’m one step closer-miniscule as that step may be-to finding a meaning in life. Because I know that this sadness-enduring as it has been- cannot possibly dominate my entire life. Because I know that in the end, I will find happiness. And as short-lived as it may be, it will be enough to make myself content for the remainder of my years. And so it is with these words that I bid you all farewell, with not a doubt in my mind that I will find a meaning to life. And that I will succeed in achieving what we all seek: A Sublime Existence.
