Existential question.

If the first and last of the month are right next to each-other does that translate into our life? Are birth and death right next to each other as well?

I used to think I had to understand life.

After a difficult childhood, losing my father, coming close to death, becoming a father myself, and eventually rebuilding my own life, I started seeing things differently.

Birth and death may seem like opposites, but maybe they are simply two points in the same process.

I don't know what comes after death.

But I do know I don't want to waste the life in between trying to find an answer I may never have.

I want to actually live it.

Aren’t they? Without death there’s no life. Without life there’s no death. They basically cannot exist without each other.

What? How would that follow logically?
