well. the knowldge that I will one day die, possibly tommorow, with no
escape clause, motivates me to accomplish stuff. No sitting arond being lazy,
because I could be dead soon ;). Each morning I arise, and remind myself of
this, often mentally composing 'death haiku'. I like to call it my morning
"death toke".

and, I know what I want. This ambition is directed.
