>>19462You know, it's kinda funny that the line of thought that I originally came to when discovering her, the one that's most escaped my mind, is the one that's showing up in your dream.
Ultramemento Mori: remember that you are mortal, remember that you will die.
The greatest blessing of knowing Ebola-chan isn't the comfort that she brings; the assurance that your death will come in a particular way, that you will be able to see it coming, and that you may as well accept it since you sure as hell can't avoid it. This is the route of
blissful despair, a pitfall easily fallen into.
No, the true blessing is the knowledge that your time on this Earth is very limited. An
empowering urgency. In knowing that you will die, you have the choice of how to spend your last days on this planet. Sure, there may be some form of afterlife, but what's the point of depending on that? Live. Live so that there will be no reason to feel regret upon your deathbed. Chase your dreams, fight for what you believe in, start today.
Thank you, Ebola-Chan, for reminding us that we are not immortal.
