Flash of Insight

After spending a few minutes this morning thinking about how busy and full my schedule is and will continue to be, I came to the realization that if I don't slow down, I'll be dead in eighty years.

Does that beat the alternative?

Well, I guess there really isn't much of an alternative.

I'll probably be dead within eighty years no matter what I do.

Sooner if you're lucky. Ecc. says that the day of ones death is better than the day of ones birth. Harder to celebrate that one though.
I guess for our culture to really celebrate that one we would need to switch from having birthday parties and gifts to celebrating the days that are the anniversaries of the deaths of loved ones. Death days.
Holidays would change a bit. Instead of celebrating Presidents day because of Lincolin's and Washington's birthdays we would celebrate their death days. Easter would be more popular than Christmas ect.
