Our mortality reminds us to cherish every moment from "summary" of Life: Why Live if You Have to Die? by David Perry

The realization that we are mortal beings is a fundamental aspect of the human experience. It serves as a constant reminder of the fragility of life and the limited time we have on this earth. In the face of our mortality, we are compelled to reflect on the value of each moment and the importance of making the most of our time. When we confront the reality of our own impermanence, we are forced to reassess our priorities and reconsider what truly matters to us. We are reminded of the fleeting nature of life and the fact that every day is a gift that should not be taken for granted. This awareness prompts us to cherish every moment, to savor the simple pleasures, and to cultivate meaningful connections with others. Our mortality serves as a powerful motivator to live fully and authentically, to pursue our passions and dreams, and to make a positive impact on the world around us. It encourages us to let go of trivial concerns and embrace the present moment with gratitude and enthusiasm. In the face of death, we are inspired to live with purpose and intention, to seek out experiences that bring us joy and fulfillment.
  1. Our mortality is a sobering reminder that life is precious and fleeting. It prompts us to approach each day with a sense of urgency and appreciation, to embrace the beauty and wonder of the world, and to make the most of our time on this earth. By acknowledging our mortality and embracing the impermanence of life, we can cultivate a deeper appreciation for the here and now, and find meaning and fulfillment in the present moment.
