Very beautifully written Pious. The post and especially the parable reminded me of a character in a Conrad novel who undertakes a long sea voyage from Bombay to London in an advanced stage of tuberculosis. When asked why he decided to get on the ship given his condition he has this fantastic response: "I must live until I die, mustn't I?"

Made me put down my phone and really enjoy the moment of me feeding Kabir. Thank you Pi.

Deeply poignant, Pious. A gentle and meaningful reminder to live each moment as though it was my last.
