Summary
It may have been a hard couple weeks. It may have been a hard couple years. It may have been a tough decade–like the one that Marcus Aurelius had, complete with plagues and floods and betrayals and health issues and more. It may have been a hard life–like Epictetus’s. But you know what? At least you woke up above ground this morning. You’re alive. Not everyone is so lucky. In fact, it may have seemed like you yourself would not be so lucky.

And with today's meditation on the day's Daily Journal excerpt, Ryan reminds us that we are all one organic hole connected by mutual interest. That’s why we created our own additions to the rich history of memento mori, including: The memento mori medallion , memento mori signet ring And the memento mori pendant, All these were created to remind us that we must live NOW, while there is still time.
