• Something that cannot be kept. The thing that most terrifies me, out of anything else in the entire world and more, is change. Had I the power, nothing in my life would ever change. Familiarity would be the constant of my life. Not change. I would never lose the people dear to me, and I would never fail because I couldn't do something new. Time terrifies me, and there's nothing I can do to affect it one way or the other. Since one begins to die the moment that one is born, every day you live is a day that you die. I have understood this for a long time, now. It has never become an easier knowledge to bear. I am afraid of losing the important things, because it is impossible to keep them forever. And because of this, I choose to cherish what I have. Someday I will lose myself. The people I leave behind will be the only thing I can manage not to ever lose. Of course, when all memory of you fades, isn't that when you are truly lost?


    My name is Garrett, and I am most afraid of change.
