Hello, this is my first time I participate in Writing Challenges. 

Wish luck to all participants. Here we go.

Story is true, sad, and cruel at the same time.

"Born 0. Died 20. Buried 80"

This is my own idea, about peoples' lives. About meaning, purpose and adding value of it. About finding yourself, your own idea of life. It doesn't say about material wealth, but all aspects, that made you fill comfort and brings happiness to your life. 

Many people spend their life meaningless, poor in grey colours. Even ones dont ever try luck, take risks, make something bigger in their lives, or live like they truly want. 

Cruel modern mincer of lives makes people spend all life doing what they said to do, living in their routine. Many talented, interesting people gave up trying, gave up challenging their lives, gave up setting their own style of living. Their unique personality, hidden abilities, that they could achive in science, music, art, sports, everywhere. They changed it to the style of unremarkable people. Thats why I call it that their talents died, killed by themselves in 20, youth age, which is totally full of opportunities and chances. They spend it without acceping challenges, taking risks, walk past all opportunities. Their risk-taking, creative, remarmable spirit is already dead. 

Even how many talents, genius eager mind are lost in wars, disasters, poverty and politicas crisises and catastrophies. Here is the best time to repeat great quote: 

“What torments me is not the humps nor hollows nor the ugliness. It is the sight, a little bit in all these men, of Mozart murdered.”

― Antoine de Saint-Exupery, Wind, Sand and Stars

and the last word: 

“You can't do anything about the length of your life, but you can do something about its width and depth.”

- H.L. Mencken
