My Written Thoughts

Today marks the day that I realize I’m slowly dying. As I woke up for the 14,612 th time, the earth finished its 39 th rotation around the sun since I first opened my eyes on this world. I took my 194 millionth breath, then I rose up, took a shower and brushed my teeth for the 28,470 th time. I got dressed and combed my hair for the 13,238 th time. I walked along the hall and down to solid ground. I said good morning to my wife and kids for the 5,112 th time and all of a sudden, I was reminded that nothing was permanent. I sipped my 2,100 th cup of coffee and headed out to my car. I twisted the key for the 16,792 nd time and as I set out on a new adventure, I was hit with nice memories of past adventures now faded in time. As I parked my car, I take my 52 millionth step and I realized that as I take these steps, I’m not just counting up but I’m counting down as my remaining steps left to be taken slowly shrink. It’s in this moment that I realize that I’m slowly dying, folks.
