Daily Journal, Dark, Humor, Light, Stoicism

As a neophyte stoic I fantasize about my own death quite regularly. Wait… does that sound morbid? I suppose it could also come across as suicidal. Really, I am none of those things, in fact, other than I think life is largely pointless I am quite a cheerful mf’er. I guess I just appreciate that the end point of life is death and I’d like my death to be done right. If possible. I mean I realize we often don’t get a say in these things. That’s why its important to prep (and consider) these things waaay in advance.
In any event. THIS… has now been added to list of possible end-game scenarios. Ha ha.
For more misadventures and wayward interpretations of stoicism, as well as examples of paragons that are WAY better at this than me, you can find all my posts collated…

June 19, 2019 at 5:42 amI think a lot about my funeral. Being dead is an unfortunate requirement.

June 19, 2019 at 6:00 amHaven’t we already established the three K’s (Kattegat, Kayak, Kerosene) for your funeral?
(eulogy by yours truly)

June 19, 2019 at 6:14 amYeah, that is the new plan.
Which, honestly, is just a more elaborate version of the old one where I wanted to be cremated BEFORE the funeral, then thrown into the sea or spread across a forest.
