Post-Modernism and the Death Impulse by Thomas Sheldon MacDonald

Written by a funeral professional and author of 14 books on transcybermortalism, despair, and philosophical ceremony.

I don’t want to be remembered for how productive I was. I want to be remembered for how deeply I loved, how fiercely I felt, and how weird I let myself be without apologizing.

Talk about #deathawareness!
Dr C Lamont MacMillan was a travelling doctor who began his career on Cape Breton Island in 1928. It seems that death was very much part of life back then.

The way people avoid end-of-life conversations tells me everything about how disconnected we are from meaning. Talking about death isn’t giving up. It’s waking up.

Caught in a spring squall,
Calisthenic shifts augurs
A moist, fragrant shroud.

Photo of Anubis. There is nothing to fear in death. Death is also transition. It is life review and rest before moving on to your next mission. Fear not, fear nothing.

We all share the same fate. But what if talking about death helped us live more fully? This is an invitation to explore life’s biggest question: what happens when we die? Let’s start the conversation.

Falling ill en route,
My dreams stray over blooms
Wilted on moorland fields
