Great piece! “Remember you will die” is one of the most powerful aspects to stoic philosophy.
My near death experience in my early twenties shifted the trajectory of my life. Life was more crisp and precious after that. Purpose became priority.
That faded after a couple decades. But it happened again in my forties when I stood on the precipice of ending my own life.
It is easy to take life for granted and get caught up in the illusion of the physical world. When we shift from performance to purpose we better understand the true value of living.
Only the flesh dies. Our memories live on. I am not saying this as a matter of hope... but rememberence. Life does exist beyond that separation of all our experiences and the flesh. Back in 1984, I had a profound Near Death Experience, that changed my life forever. I found true life exists forever.
