Assignment 19 Siobhan

A quote that is engraved in my brain in "You've spent an infinity years not being born yet and you will spend an infinity years being dead. Finish your cereal and go outside." The quote has made such an impact on me because it's preaching a life lesson in a way I have never heard before. People will tell you all the time to make the most out of your short life or to enjoy your life while you can but no one has been able to elaborate on the notion that all human beings have spent two infinities not being alive. But we are living for a short 90 years or so. The two times are not comparable. So here you are stuck in this time of "living" not appreciating your life when you have another whole infinity to be dead. Not breathing, not eating, not loving, alone. Whatever higher power out there has given us a time interval between two infinities to be something other than dead. To experience what it is like to hate and to love.
