Remember that You're ALREADY Dead (Aurelius - Meditations 7:56)

Have any questions, insights, or feedback? Send me a text!Synopsis: I seem to be on a memento mori kick as of late. In today’s episode I discuss the biggest impact (thus far) of my “Counting the Weeks of My Life” experiment, which I spoke about in one of last week’s episodes. For those who are turned off to memento mori practices because they see them as overly negative or morbid might find Marcus Aurelius’s alternative approach to be more appealing. Related Rabbi Schneeweiss Content: - Counting the Weeks of My Life- How to Enjoy the Present Day As If It’s Your Last- Mattos/Masei: Leaving an Out for Your Enemy Sources: - Aurelius, Meditations 7:56- Aaron Sorkin, Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip – Episode 9: The Option Period- Band of Brothers (not sure which episode)----------This week's Torah content has been sponsored anonymously with appreciation for all the learning opportunities offered by YBT over Zoom.----------If you have questions, comments, or feedback, I would love to hear from you!
