I will admit to feeling more negative since Charlie Kirk was killed, I think the reason why is that we’re past the rubicon now. And there’s nothing good that follows.
That said remembering you’re going to die isn’t about death, but about life. It’s important to remember that we will die. So that we may live. I don’t view that as a negative message. Memento Mori.
MEMEnto mori has a negative connotation tho
When Roman consuls/generals paraded on Rome they assigned a guy to whisper him “remember you must die”, so he don’t become too power hungry
Carpe diem is more accurate
When you phrase it like that, fine. Usually its "We are all gonna die" period.
And I think you are correct in that the country passed a Turning Point. I don't think civil war is coming but surely more civil unrest. We recently bought a citadel in a small town in the Ozarks which is over 90% white and I'm loving it.
And I'm not the boss of you Hodl.
I read and listen a lot online and its not enough that they divide us into right and left, blue and red, cis and gender whatever, but the generational divisions are the stupidest of all. If you are born a year or two this or that side of a date you are automatically this or that. I run across Boomer hate every day on X where youngers curse their elders and gloat that they will all be dead soon and the world will magically improve. Pure lunacy but they can't see it.
