And as things stand, their time is running out since, of course, Paul will be able to accomplish less and less the longer it goes on. Because I believe we all forget that our time is already limited for everyone of us, I believe he is attempting to live each moment as we all should.
We all lose sight of the fact that we should cherish each moment since we never know what lies ahead because we are so caught up in the daily grind.
