I am into numbers so the fact that today is 8/8/2024 (8) has me excited about the possibilities of what lies ahead. So many good things are happening and I want to begin celebrating them all. The older I get, the more I realize that death is truly the only promise. It is the one thing I know.
I don't know why.
I don't know when.
And I surely don't know where I will be but I do know without any doubts that one day I will die. Perhaps sooner than later or maybe later than soon. Nevertheless, it will happen. I will not live in flesh this flesh forever. Nobody will.
Accepting this fact has allowed me to find comfort in living. I want to live the way "I" want to live. I want to experience being myself to the fullest extent. I want to leave here knowing I did all that I wanted to do. Even if that something is absolutely nothing, I want to know I did exactly what I wanted to do each & every day that I was here. Tomorrow is not promised and the memories, my memories, will be the only thing that travels with me into the next life.
And even that, I am not sure about.
