It’s dusk.
And I can just barely see the objects in my room.
I close my eyes.
The objects are gone.
I am no longer here.
The bed I was lying in has vanished.
The room is empty.
The fridge noise comes on for a bit and then off, on then off.
A season has passed.
The front door opens.
New humans enter.
I have left.
My body is gone.
Back to ashes.
I know I AM not gone.
* In case you missed the subtitle, many philosophies suggest there are great benefits to confront one’s mortality.
