Only Me

The columns represent days and the rows are the twelve months of the year, so each day of the year occupies one square.

I’m used to thinking about one year as a long time. Chances are, you do too. But when a year is represented like this, and you can see every day of the year at a glance, suddenly a year doesn’t seem so long anymore

You cross out a square with each day passes, once it’s gone, it’s gone forever. And when another year has passed, all the squares will be crossed out, irrevocably lost. You move on to another grid.

How many more grids do you have?

When you see it this way, you come to the inescapable conclusion that, indeed, life is too short.

Don’t wast you life.
