Day 1431: Life, Death and Urgency

Death gives urgency to life– that’s what I realized today.

 

It’s 12  : 10  PM on day 1431 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to brush my teeth, pray, start reading Psalm 119, feed myself bran flakes with banana for breakfast, finish reading Psalm 119 – Psalm 119 was the biggest Psalm I’d seen but I was determined to finish it –     publish my Disability of the Day feature,    practice sitting up straight to strengthen my core muscles,stretch my hamstrings and continue reading The Tipping Point by Malcolm Gladwell – Malcolm Gladwell is one of the few famous people I’d like to meet (you can tell I’m a bookworm) every time I read one of Malcolm’s books I learn new things I’d like to thank him for that

 

Today thinking about my grandma I suddenly felt more urgent about my life there are so many things I want to do before I leave this world I want to help more people, I want to travel the world, I want to have new experiences… death is funny it’s scary to think about yet it’s exactly what we need to jolt us out of mediocrity.
