    I have no idea who you are. I don't know where you live, where you've been, where you want to go. I don't know what you want to be when you grow up, or if you've already grown up. I don't know if you have a girlfriend or a boyfriend or friends or enemies. I don't know you. But I love you. With all of my heart.
     
    Because you are going to die. I am going to die. Everyone you know, everyone you love, everybody you see today or tomorrow or the day after that will die. But, right now, in this moment, we're alive. After an immensity of unconsciousness, you and I were born. After an immensity of geologic time, humans exist. After thousands of years, global technical civilization exists. You and I are experiencing this whole wide world, together. At the same time.
     
    Knowing both that we're all alive and that we're all going to die, how could I feel anything but love for you?
