What if I'm laughed at?
What if I look like a kook?
And we just live from that instinct.
I think we'd be so much happier in our lives.
That's exactly what I mean.
Another, another little mental tool that I use is that thank, thank goodness I'm healthy.
But if I'm lucky, I have 25 years left to live, maybe 30.
And so I call this my 25 summers question.
So when I'm about to make a decision, I say, well, I roughly have 25 Christmases left, 25 summers.
When you say it like that, you say, okay, I better get this done, or I better do this ethical ambition, or I better take this risk, or I better chase that love story.
So I think death is not depressing.
Thinking about death is not depressing, I think.
thinking about death is actually inspiring because then it just sharpens you on what's most important in life.
I'm blessed to have an amazing partner to share life with.
Her name is Elle.
She's waiting for me to return.
I've been on the road for three weeks.
So day after tomorrow, I will be back home.
She's waiting for me with our little dog, Holly, who's a five-pound Chorky.
