Let's Embrace

Let’s embrace uncertainty,
Let’s embrace meaninglessness,
Let’s embrace the absence of life after death,
And the absence of a divine creator.

Let’s embrace the accidental nature of our being,
Let’s embrace randomness,
Let’s embrace loving each other because it’s a good thing to do,
Rather than a ticket to Paradise.

These are all good things.
They are gifts from no one.
Let’s embrace making the most of our time on this planet,
Before we all die.
