REST AND CONSIDER YOUR MORTALITY

The heart beats incesantly like a time bomb that we can't hear but know it's there. Like a time bomb that will explode at an undetermined hour, the heart will stop beating just the same. If we lived with a time bomb strapped to our chest would we do anything differently? What if the clock was only audible at random intervals, reminding us that we could go at any time? Would the loud and unwelcomed ticking ruin our day? Do we prefer deafened ears to the sounds of our dimishing capacity? Our quota is getting consumed with every second. Do we really have time to waste? Can we count on doing it tomorrow or some other day?
We don't rest because we are lazy or because our capacity is exhausted. We stop so we can start again. Rest only so that you can go harder. When you're laid to rest you can take a break once and for all. Avoid dying before expiring.
