i know one day i'll look and you'll be gone. 
that's true, but not today. 
you don't think about extinction. when i think about extinction it's personal, i have to admit.
i think of the animals i love yes, but i really don't think about the world extinction. not that it's abstract, but it's just too big. but you are blessed because you don't think about extinction, period. i assume.
words are translation. extinction is a word for how you feel. i only think in words so you'll understand. i do feel blessed, as you say. so listen, isn't today enough to think about, today?
