"The way to really live is to die. The passport to living is to imagine yourself in your grave. Imagine you’re lying in your coffin….Now look at your problems from that viewpoint. Changes everything, doesn’t it?"
~ Anthony de Mello, 20th century Jesuit priest from Awareness
Wow.
Imagine you’re lying in your coffin.
It’s closed. And cold. You’re underground. Dirt is being shoveled on top.
You there?
…
Now look at your problems.
Changes everything, eh?
Now…
LIVE!!!!
