Where ever you are…

Whatever you are doing…

Think for a moment that this is your last moment…

That however it happens, whatever the cause…

Suddenly this is to be your last moment alive…

Pause it here.

Rewind the week, the month and even the year…

How would you live differently in this frame of time?

Knowing the precise moment in which all moments end.

We can’t of course live productive lives thinking this way

But when given reason to reflect, we should make space for it.

Because nothing is guaranteed…

And death makes meaningless all work not done out of love

And all time spent on uninspired efforts, away from those we love

So eat, drink and be merry me hearties

For this week in science

Is coming up Next…
