Last year November.
In Autumn
I visited my aunt, In Austin
To meet Her tombstone
Who walked among us
And gave warm hugs
I couldn't bear the sight
She was just a cold marble
Just a number with her name
Just two numbers and a name
How unfair is life?

If you would like to know about life, Spend some time in Cemetery walking.
Seriously, everyone who cares about life, and want to succeed in life, should take a walk among dead in a cemetery. And feel what it is like to end up in where we belong after all the success. You can just do it today, and it will be a strange experience to visit there when there is no funeral. Just to meet some tombstones, which are carved with names and dates. Few words to remind a memory of a dead person to the living. And If you walk, you would see fresh stones, standing proud, while the old ones hide the engravings with moss and mold.
It is a place where we are scared to walk at night. Often pictured in movies and popular culture as scary. The same people we loved and wished never left us now trying to haunt, living with totally strangers in the cemetery. Rich and poor, old and young, good and bad, criminals and doctors living a dead life. How scary is that for a dream. Do I want to spend time dead, buried alongside my enemies? Should I write my last will to change the title of my Tombstone and the place where it should be built? Should I make a gigantic pyramid to make it last a thousand years into the future?

Then there is the problem, how can I know that my will be executed when I am dead? Who is going to supervise that my friends and family would not rob me the will. Will I come back as a ghost, if I value my will too much? There are no definite answers to these questions. Not with evidence, for real reasons. Once we know the reality as we see is just another illusion, afterlife and death would make no sense. But first we have to know who is living and who is dying.
I see the problem. Stuck within my own prison, I cannot testify about you. You are out of my league anyway. Are you living? Are you dead? there is no method exist for me to tell for sure. But what about me? Am I living? Who am I anyway? Isn't it important to know myself before I start making a successful career? Shouldn't they teach us, about ourselves before we were taught about "What to do in life?". You may think I am a crazy philosopher asking stupid questions. Let's talk about stocks and investments instead. Real things that matter in life.
Which stocks did you invest in?
If you are in America (majority of my visitors are from USA) and reasonably wealthy you may have invested in stocks. How about some tesla Stocks? You believe what Elon Musk is doing right. Listen to what he has to say about above questions about life. He think, that human consciousness is not advanced enough to answer such questions. So, he takes a different path to make it multiplanetary until we are able to figure out life. The question is do we have to believe him? On which grounds he has come to that conclusion? After trying all his life? No, maybe he spent a couple of years of youth to figure out life and was distracted by the moon instead. The real reason, I was taking about Elon is if you have invested in his stocks, basically which means you are investing indirectly to answer the question "What is life". Is there a better way to do it? Would you trust yourself or Elon Musk in matters of life?

Stocks that matters
I think wise way to do it is, think about it myself, as it matters to me. That I figure out myself before I am dead and become a tombstone beside unknown people. I refuse to wait until I am sick, I get a cancer or unable to walk. I refuse to everyone who says, success comes first. The truth is no big success matters unless you figure out who you are. A billion dollar question of life. Humans have remarkable ability to replicate nature. Somehow they have figured out ways to persist and overcome death, by keeping records of themselves. Just like DNA, how nature did it millions of years ago. But still trapped.
Let's battle individually and discuss together, so we have better chances of winning this stupid game nature has created for us.
