And so I did not, um, feel great fear about my death.
I didn't want the pain I was going through.
I didn't want to be a pansy ass.
Um, you know, at the, in the, in the final moments, excuse me, um,
I am doing so far.
Oh, thank you.
But I did immediately feel regrets about a lot of misprioritization.
You jokingly referred earlier to my podcast, which takes its line from Monty Python, not dead yet.
We're all on the clock.
And I
wanted to have prioritized better, and whether I really only had three or four months left, or if I get nine to 12 months left, I want to prioritize better from then.
But in my tradition, in Christianity, the need for daily repentance is just a truth.
I am broken.
I leave undone those things which I ought to have done, and I do those things which I have not done.
You know what?
Morphine.
And there is no health in us.
And I get to repent every day of both my sins of omission and commission.
And yet...
at a slightly bigger level, if you're only gonna get three or four months, you really wanna get some of your affairs in order.
