maybe

"Maybe" makes me want to rip my lungs out.

"Maybe" is a less specific phrase than "15 minutes COULD save you UP TO 15% or MORE on car insurance."

Maybe, someday, eventually, possibly, uncertainly, perhaps. It's so noncommittal! Maybe i'll learn how to play the guitar. Maybe i'll visit Paris someday. Maybe i'll fall in love.

"Maybe" is a hopeful word. It's a word to say "this could happen, but i don't want to get my hopes up, or put the effort in to make it happen".

Imagine if we turned all those maybes and somedays into todays. Live in the now, it's the only time we've got.
