– July already. The months slip by so quickly. Halfway through the year already.
– Such is life.
– Sorry?
– I was just trying to find something consoling to say.
– And?
– And that was it. A little word of consolation. In the face of the unswerving inevitability of time's onward march.
– It was not so consoling.
– Sorry. What did you expect?
– I don't know. Perhaps something more uplifting.
– Such as that you should cast aside futile thoughts of how you've wasted the best years of your life, and instead focus with renewed enthusiasm on making the most of each precious day? To live deep and suck out all the marrow of life?
– I guess so. That sounds a bit more positive.
– I wish I could help. I'm not so good at the motivational stuff.
