closeup photo of fireworks

A firework in a local traditional festival in the prettiest island of Greece, the island of Naxos in the Aegean sea. More than a light in the night sky, it is a reminder of the concept of "momentary". Something that you feel or enjoy but won't last for ever. There are things that will probably be there after you, like the pyramids in Giza for example, but you have surely outlived a firework. That makes you put your life into perspective. You can see more clearly the boundaries of one's existence. Now that you know, go out and live. One may have fewer fireworks to outlive than one might expect.
