In Texas, just like across the world, we all know that eventually one day we are all going to die but it’s something that a lot of people don’t like to discuss. To me, it’s not that big of a deal, we don’t need to avoid the topic of conversation and act like it’s not going to happen, because it is. As of now, there is no way for you to stay alive forever. But it also makes you start thinking about the leading causes of death and how you can extend your time on earth as much as possible.

We can try to work out and stay healthy, but eventually our body is going to get tired and exhausted from all that we put it through. Most of us expect passing away in a bed with family surrounding us, but let’s be honest, life doesn’t always go according to plan. Okay, it rarely goes according to plan. But that’s okay, we all just need to remember to live every day to its fullest because tomorrow isn’t promised.
