The Question of Life

I saw this cartoon on The Chive, asking the eternal question:




Besides the weird mutant humanoid that's supposed to be a baby, this is a great illustration.

It perfectly captures the perpetual inability of human beings to fully appreciate the only time that really exists - NOW.

I wake up every day with the realization that I might not make it to the next one. Truly accepting your own mortality in an immediate way helps increase awareness and acceptance of your own experiences.

I know I'm here to simply.... live.
