I’ve seen variations of the thought: “life can end at any moment,” but the more I thought about it, there’s something esoteric about that belief, so I’ve opted here for the more realistic approach: “life will end at any moment.” It will be a random moment as ever, and it always feels too sudden. There’s a sense of urgency in everyone when we’re first told of our mortality, and then hopeful years are spent trying to fit in all we can into this little breath of time.It’s amazing what can be done with even just a few days of our lives. Take nothing for granted. Be worried as little as you possibly can. Your mortality is an inevitable thing, but it’s not scary; it comes like the days, or hunger, or change. I feel as though we become complacent, compartmentalizing our deaths as some far-off idea we don’t yet have to contend with. In doing that, we actually rob ourselves of a richness so profound, it’s been studied and the subject of art for many centuries.Do your best to live as fully as you can
