That's putting it mildly.

There's thousands of photos of Nicky over the years, but this is an all time favorite of mine.

So many dirtbags wasting air on this planet, and yet we lose Nicky.

Ride In Peace, Nicky.

“Every man dies. Not every man really lives.” – William Wallace

Although this quote is very short, it has a very deep meaning. On the surface, it seems as if the quote is simply stating that everyone dies and not everyone gets the chance to live. But when looking at the deeper meaning, it’s saying that not everyone actually lives their live to the fullest. It is inevitable that everyone dies in this world at some point, but it is an individual choice whether you decide to live or not.

To really live means to live your life to the fullest. It means to chase your dreams, take risks, and to love life. Since everyone’s fate is the same, why not live the best life that you possibly can? In order to really live, you must seize the day. Live each day as if it's your last and overall just do it! Today is a gift, that’s why it’s called the present. Life presents us with a lifetime of opportunities but the opportunity of a lifetime is obtained when right choices are followed. Be present to enjoy the moment. Each day is a fresh start with options just waiting to be explored, so live life.

No one wants to be the person that dies without living. So people must find something that gives their life meaning, whether it’s being a great friend, sibling, parent, grandparent, teacher, neighbor, etc. Once people have found something to live for, they’ll live better. If it's not relationships as a central purpose, maybe its occupation or something that is outside work that makes a difference to others. The meaning of life is something people have to decide for themselves. To live life, set goals and move toward them in small reasonable steps.

Like yesterday I remember picking up DucMouse at the airport and taking her to a meet n greet with Nicky. What a fun day.

RIP Nicky!
