Remember to Die!
.
It's autumn, and autumn is my season. Part of my annual duties is to wander about, stamping the word DEATH on fallen leaves. This year, as an experiment, I spray-painted some of those leaves white. To make them stand out so they'll be easier to find when I strew them about.
The reason I do this is because autumn is the season that implicitly says MEMENTO MORI. Which is Latin for Remember to Die . There's no big hurry on this one. But it's on your list of things to do.
Because if you haven't died, you haven't lived a rich, full life yet.
