He’ll Always Live Long and Prosper

For a television character that was incapable of emotion, Dr. Spock’s last tweet is a beautiful sentiment. But fans across social media—both Trekkies and non-Trekkies alike—are uniting over the Star Trek character’s famous Vulcan hand gesture and mantra, “Live long and prosper” expressed in the hashtag #LLAP.

A life is like a garden. Perfect moments can be had, but not preserved, except in memory. LLAP
