Clear Day

Jacob, my son. 

Make the most of every day my son because you don't know how many days you have left. You could be on your last day or have many thousands more but one day you will have none left. 

Your quality of life could also be compromised before your time is up. You may get a disease that causes you to be disabled and trapped. The other day I learned that the singer Justin Bieber caught a virus that attacks the nerves in the ear and causes paralysis of the face muscles, he can't do very much now; I wish him a quick recovery. 

What I would say is every day work a bit, learn a bit and play a bit. Make time for your hobbies if you have them and allow time for leisure, play computer games or music for fun. Learn something new every day. Work hard but not too hard. 

That's it. Keep your chin up and try to see the other side of life's challenges. If you get stressed, talk about it.
