Remember death's impermanence from "summary" of Manual for Living by Epictetus
Living is temporary and death is an inevitable part of life. We should not forget that our time on earth is finite and to live each moment wisely and with purpose.- Death is an inevitable journey that we all have to face at some point in time, but it should not be seen as a permanent situation.
- Remembering that even death itself is nothing more than a temporary phenomenon helps us to become less scared and more conscious of our mortality.
- While death can feel like an ending, one should remember that it can also open up new possibilities for life.
- It is important to be grateful every day for all experiences and take joy in them, as death soon shatters these intangible memories.
- One should embrace the notion of impermanence and reflect on how brief our lives truly are.
- We should place value on each moment and opportunity life presents us with, as every single experience is transient.
- Instead of holding onto something that will eventually pass away, live your life with no regrets—even when considering eventual death.
- Everyone's existence, from beginning to end, will eventually be forgotten by the world.
