Mortality

Anthony's picture

Reading the first chapter of Too Late to Die Young was very transformative. It is incredible that someone so young could have tackled concerns over mortality at such a young age. I have had a similar experience, albeit for a different reason, but it is very interesting to hear someone else's take. It is especially fascinating the idea of death as a motivator, with the limited time we have being the reason for us to want to accomplish great things, both for ourselves and those around us.
