"Observe in short how transient and trivial is all mortal life; yesterday a drop of semen, tomorrow a handful of spice and ashes. Spend, therefore, these fleeting moments on earth as nature would have you spend them..."
- Marcus Aurelius, Meditations, Book IV;48 (translated by Maxwell Staniforth)

Seemed appropriate for today. My mother remembered to call me this AM. I'm surprised as all get-out.
