"Moreover, no man knows when his hour will come: as fish are caught in a cruel net, or birds are taken in a snare, so men are trapped by evil times that fall unexpectedly upon them." --- Ecclesiastes 9:12

To live a life of wisdom is to live a life knowing that security is an illusion.  When you accept this as reality, then you are free to embrace the life you have and live it to its fullest.  If you spend all your days seeking safety from all harm, you live on the edge like none other-- for you procrastinate the very act and art of living.  What life do you want after all?  What is it that you live for?  What do you dream of doing one day that you can actually do today?  Do something today.  Live.
