Your question is interesting.
What would we do, if we knew when we would die. Where did the info come from.
It's interesting because it brings back memories of the farm... my great-grandparents and their neighbors had apple trees.
They were very old. Not all of the kids even knew where all the trees where anymore. It was by chance when we found an apple,
or because one of the older people told us.
Nowadays people go to the store and read the expiration date, they make most of their purchases based on what others have told them is good and bad.
In the produce section of the store is the only stuff without those labels.
The stuff that's still alive.
You are still alive, and so am I.
That's the miracle, the joke, and the reality for now.
I did some freaking research a few years ago and God blessedly relieved me of the memory of that stuff.
I don't remember what I saw or how I found it, it could have been part of the answer you're looking for,
but it's not the end.
The date doesn't really matter if you take into account that people tend to come back to see the places they enjoy.
p.s. for you, please find a copy of the book "the sandman: endless nights"
by neil gaiman. there is one story inside, (chapter 1) called "Death and Venice" (art by p craig russell).
it deals with the story "masque of the red death" by edgar allen poe but in a fairer light. death is not the villain but the hero, the breath of fresh air given to the desolation of the silence of the old... it is the triumphant shout of the dying hero and the cry of the newborn
death is the hand we take when we cross the street of the hereafter lol
p.s. if you reallly realllllllly wanna follow the white rabbit,
tongue in cheek of course, grain of salt,
do a bit of research regarding all of this sort of thing:
The Ides of March (Latin: Idus Martiae, Late Latin: Idus Martii)[1] is a day on the Roman calendar that corresponds to 15 March. It was marked by several religious observances and became notorious as the date of the assassination of Julius Caesar in 44 BC. The death of Caesar made the Ides of March a turning point in Roman history, as one of the events that marked the transition from the historical period known as the Roman Republic to the Roman Empire.[2]
Although March (Martius) was the third month of
the Julian calendar, in the oldest Roman calendar it was the first month of the year. The holidays observed by the Romans from the first through the Ides often reflect their origin as new year celebrations.[citation needed]
i hope you like algebra.
don't look at it too much
