Live in the Moment

Location

A glimpse of another life can ruin you
Dreaming can create the most excruciating heartbreak 

I had always been told not to put all of my eggs in one basket
Not to count the chickens before they hatched

I didn't quite know what that meant
Too soon I faced it's bitter reality

A plan can be a marvelous thing
It can also rip you apart

Don’t count on certain things to happen
The future holds the craziest twists and turns

Revealed to you in time 
You later know the motive

Life's not always what you expect
Who ever said it would be

A glimpse of another life can break you
Live in the moment
