As I leave this earth and sail into the infinite cosmo of the universe, the wars, the triumphs, the beauty, and the bloodshed, the ocean of human endeavor, it all grows quiet, insignificant. I'm nothing more than recycled stardust and borrowed energy, born from a rock, spinning in the ether. I watch my life backwards and forwards and I feel free. Nothing is real, love is everything, and I know nothing.

What is the cure for Cancer? The cure for death itself?
The answer is immortality.
By creating a legacy, by living a life worth remembering, you become immortal.

When you read the history of the world you are reading a saga of bloodshed and greed and folly the import of which is impossible to ignore. And yet we imagine that the future will somehow be different.

Aaliyah 1979-2001
"It is dark in my favorite dream. Someone is following me. I don`t know why. I`m scared. Then suddenly I lift off. Far away. How do I feel? As if I am swimming in the air. Free. Weightless. Nobody can reach me. Nobody can touch me. It`s a wonderful feeling."
-Aaliyah in a July 2001 interview

"The loneliest people are the kindest.
The saddest people smile the brightest.
All because they do not wish to see
anyone suffer the way they do."

Robin Williams
1951-2014
This year just keeps on taking and taking doesn't it? Its like 2009 all over again. Once again a great artist who has brought light into millions of people has died. Sadly, Robin couldn't see that light to save himself. :-(

MH17
My deepest condolences go out to the victims of Flight MH17. I am quite devastated at the plane that was shot down in the Ukraine. Mainly because it didn't have to happen and more people almost 300 people at once now are gone, they have faded away. People who had their whole life ahead of them, happily going to their destinations. Some were AIDS researchers going to their conferences and others going on vacation with their families. This is the second air disaster for Malaysia Airlines in only a couple months, I know how overwhelmed they must be, surely this couldn't happen twice, right? Not in such a short time. There is so much death in the world, Even though I sell lots of Memento Mori jewelry, it doesn't make it easier to deal with. I suppose I make Memento Mori jewelry as an attempt to deal with death. As you get older you realize that end is near and you never know when, like those people on the plane who never saw this coming. I think the constant unknowing around death is terrifying. You don't know when, you don't know how, you don't know what will happen afterwards, you just know that you have no choice. Its the only thing that all humans, animals, and things share. The reason tragic news stories like these captures our minds and our hearts is because of this main fact: It will happen to you,too.
