Your lifetime will be summed up in less than a page, and that's being generous. All your striving for glory, all your efforts for fame, all your seeking of love and recognition, will end in a single page of history that nobody will care much to read. Your body and the bodies of those you call friend or foe will fade into the same dust. All of your worldly possessions will pass on. Ungrateful generations will roam the world, ignorant of the ground they stand on. Our victorious fathers have painted a wonderful illusion of our history. Intermingling half truths with half fallacies. In the glory of their day death hid under a stone until it rose up larger than the sun and devoured them. Don't be as foolish. Uncover death and invite it over for dinner. It has been falsely assumed that death is a thief. How wrong they have been. Death is a great teacher. When you refuse to consider death, you deny its wisdom. True wisdom of death assures you the greatest use of life. |
