Live everyday as if it is
your last because how do
you know its not?
We say that the hour of death cannot be forecast, but when we
say this we imagine that hour as placed in an obscure and
distant future. It never occurs to us that it has any
connection with
the day already begun or that death could arrive
this same afternoon
this afternoon which is so certain and which has every hour.
