Stop and smell the memes.

Flowers can go a long way. If you've ever received a bouquet of them from somebody you love, then you know this to be true. It's a beautiful, tasteful, and generous gesture. It makes you feel like the most special girl in the world, even on an average Tuesday. But part of the beauty of flowers is that they don't last forever. They teach you about the impermanence of life, and make you confront its rueful nature. As soon as you get them, they start to wilt. They only contain their beauty for so long, and then they start to shed their petals. But there is a beauty in this, too. The beauty of the ephemeral. That is part of the gesture of flowers. They show you that you deserve nice things, even if they are not going to last forever. You still deserve beauty, even if it all fades eventually. There's a beautiful poetry in this metaphor. They light up your life for a time, but they don't promise to do it forever. Nothing in life lasts forever.

This can be hard to remember, and even harder to face. But the sooner we can all accept that everything is in permanent, the more fun we can have here on earth. It reminds us to be present with the stuff that is in front of us, instead of constantly searching for the next thing. Because if you stop and look around right now, life is pretty good. There may be things you would want to change, but for the most part, we're good with what we've got. Memes can help us remember this, too. Memes are not going to be here forever. The internet is ever-changing, and it's not always easy to keep up with. And because it's always changing, it means there is loss every day. Every day on the Internet, new things come up, and old things fall to the wayside. But right now we have these memes in front of us. And they're good memes. So we might as well enjoy them.
