It’s the end of an era in this month’s newsletter!

As we end another year, it seems wise to think about other endings too. I’m specifically talking about death; not in a gruesome way with the dark world of online murder markets or the bizarre tale of how a feud over a URL ended in a bloody shootout. I’m talking about people embracing the art of dying as well as the movement to bring death closer to home. In other words, it’s about appreciating life and everything in it while we can.
Indeed, it’s much like Marcel Proust writes in Remembrance of Things Past, our book recommendation for the month (also available on Audible) with an ideal quote to end this decade:
“If our unhappiness is due to the loss of someone dear to us, our suffering consists merely in an unusually vivid comparison of the present with the past.”
