This is truly a wonderful mediations on the Meditations. So true, what's matter is doing what we are here to do between birth and death. that is living well and so dying well; as Socrates said all life is truly a preparation for a good death

This is really amazing. Realizing the finitude of life brings us to the now and here. Sitting in a library in a town in India, reading someone's Colorado trail experience with a Roman emperor's book and being able to relate to every word of it is just mind-boggling for me. How connected are we across time and space!
