    I agree: make ‘meaningful’ out of the ‘meaningless’, regardless of some grand truth. Rebellion is our DNA.

    So you say I’m not human and have no meaning in life just because I don’t want to be productive

      i don’t think she said that

    • Kevin Rose

      September 25, 2023 at 2:02 pm

      She said the opposite. You are human – and good exactly as you are – in spite of society “productivity” expectations

      I imagine for the same reason puppies know how to have puppy eyes, so their forever family will adore them. She both striking and lovely because it comes from within. her.

      She’s a death doula. Ask a Mortician I believe had an episode with her on YouTube or Vice. Can’t remember which.

    Are there any settings to stop people like her to pop-up in recommendations? I’d like to absorb more white European content

    I hope that one day there are more death doulas like her available. It seems like a service that could benefit so many people while helping ease the anxiety of death planning and death itself.

      Read the Tibetan Book of the Dead, to learn how to contemplate and meditate on death.

    Everybody is talking about ambitions and plans… I always just wanted to see what life would bring…. If I make grand plans and scheemes and stick rigidly to those, I wpuld have no room to embrace the impulsive ideas, random invitations or amazing opportunities… And those things are what makes good memories and life worth living imo….
    So am I unambitious? No, I have ambitions of unknow adventures and knowledge!😊
