A Life Lived That Matters

Poem by Michael Josephson
Taken from the Documentary Film
"A Beautiful Truth"

For each of us, eventually,
whether we're ready or not,
someday, it will come to an end.
 
There will be no more sunrises, or sunsets.
No minutes, hours, or days.
 
All the things you collected,
whether treasured or forgotten,
will pass to someone else.
 
Your wealth, fame, and temporal power
will shrivel to irrelevance.
 
It will not matter what you owned, or owed.
 
Your grudges, resentments, frustrations, and jealousies
will finally disappear.
 
So to your hopes, ambitions, plans,
and to-do lists will expire.
 
The wins and loses that once seemed so important,
will fade away.
 
It won't matter where you came from,
or what side of the tracks you lived in the end.
 
It won't matter if you're beautiful or brilliant.
Even your gender and skin color will be irrelevant.
 
So what will matter?
 
How will the value of your days be measured?
 
What will matter is not what you bought,
but what you built.
 
Not what you got, but what you gave.
 
What will matter is not your success,
but your significance.
 
What will matter is not what you learned,
but what you taught.
 
What will matter is every act of integrity,
compassion, courage or sacrifice
 
That enriched, empowered,
or encouraged others to emulate your example.
 
What will matter is not your competence,
but your character.
 
What will matter is not how many people you knew,
but how many feel a lasting loss when you're gone.
 
What will matter is not your memories,
but the memories that lived in those that loved you.
 
A life lived that matters
is not of circumstance,
but of choice...

a life lived that matters


The Life of Death - A Powerful Short Animation Video that will Change Your View on Death Forever


by Marsha Onderstijn on February 10, 2016, from YouTube website
 
The 'Life of Death' is a touching hand-drawn animation about the day Death fell in love with Life.
 
After being well received on various animation festivals and being featured on the EYE film DVD of Selected Dutch Shorts it is finally online!



"Death must be so beautiful.

To lie in the soft brown earth, with the grasses waving above one's head, and listen to silence.

To have no yesterday, and no to-morrow. To forget time, to forget life, to be at peace."

Oscar Wilde

The Canterville Ghost

Thinking of death as beautiful seems a strange thing in a world where fear rules many of our feelings toward it.
 
People fear possible pain, suffering, or struggling.
 
They fear dying too soon, or even too late. 

They fear dying in a way that negates the way they lived, or changes how people view them.
 
People fear not being able to accomplish certain things; of what life will be like once they are gone. And of course, people fear what will happen to them after.

Death is such a taboo subject in many cultures that it is simply avoided. But not everyone is okay with that, and many provide insight on the beauty of death to open people's minds to a different perspective on the subject.
 
There are discussions, books, videos, and so much more.

Called The Life of Death, the above short video was hand-drawn by Marsha Onderstijin, an animator and storyboard artist from the Netherlands.
 
The video, which was well received among many animation festivals, tells the story of the day Death fell in love with Life.

The video follows a recognizable but more approachable version of death as "he" goes about his day as death does.
 
The story will open not only your mind, but your heart, allowing you to accept death as a natural, beautiful, and necessary thing.

The simple artistry of the film makes it more digestible.
 
We see death in the form of a loving companion as opposed to something overwhelmingly terrifying to the point where we cannot even fathom it for fear of losing our immediate sense of calm.

Death resembles more a child in this video than a horrific and powerful force.
 
He goes about touching animals in need of peace and eternal rest with an utter unknowing of what he is doing. 

And when he comes around to the reality of his actions, he is pained to find that when he touches what he loves, he loses it forever.

Rarely is death represented in human form, and so, when it is, we find ourselves more easily able to relate.
 
The video may cause tears to well up in your eyes, a chill to crawl down your spine, and the hair on your arms to rise, but for the first time, when it comes to death, that feeling won't necessarily be bad, but simply different, and maybe even beautiful.

Enjoy watching the above short film and share it with anyone who you feel may need a new perspective on the subject to take the fear of death away.
