| "Live your life" over the chapel symbolizing not to live your life in fear of the church. |
This quote warns us of how people are so busy trying to be "good" and live up to certain standards, that they never truly live. "Looking down the street" is to only show the devastation these expectations can cause, not only in your life, but the life of others also.
“ Live your life that the fear of death can never enter your heart.
Respect others and demand that they respect yours.
Love your life, perfect your life, beautify all things in your life.
Seek to make your life long and of service to your people.
Always give a word or sign of salute when meeting or passing a friend,
or even a stranger, if in a lonely place.
Show respect to all people, but grovel to none.
The fault lies in yourself.
When their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time
to live their lives over again in a different way."
