I would choose to live again

Ok Imma just say it.

Death is something really scary eh? 

It could come at any point for all of us, and nobody can be 100% certain of what comes after it, IF it even comes something after… Well I mean nothing would also be something right? Idk.

Either way, one day we all are going to find out. Can’t run from it, can’t bargain, can’t avoid it forever. It only gets worse the more you think about the theme. People who are important to you will also experience that one day, and they’re not choosing to leave you, the same as you’re (hopefully) not choosing to leave them either. 

Today I’m not talking about the… One really messed up part involving dying. You probably know what I mean by that. That’s for another episode.


One thing we know though. The universe doesn’t stop after the death of someone. Things will keep going. The same will be for us all. The second most important thing in our lives (Just after being born) is NOTHING to the universe.

Now something interesting. If death is something basically everybody is scared of, as humans it’s natural to be scared of it, then why EVERYONE will answer “no” to the question “Would you like to live forever?”.

Most people that answer that don’t want to die, but they don’t want to not die. And I’m pretty sure everybody would prefer not to necessarily need to choose when they’ll die, like a day or a moment, even if it is spontaneous. That’s weird right?

It’s like people do appreciate the chance they got to live, but they eventually get tired of it, but they also don’t want to choose when they’re finally gone. As if life after many many years would just be the worst type of torture. 

And even writing here, just to imagine living forever feels horrible. I get this feeling that from the moment we were born we already knew it wouldn’t last forever. We weren’t made to live forever.


People say it’s like finally resting. Ok… It doesn’t feel wrong to say that. But that would mean that life is just work, a struggle. Then what would be the point of living? Since we are part of the universe, why does the universe want to struggle? 

I prefer to think that the universe wants to live. And it thinks that the struggle is worth going through. As much work life brings with itself, Life is Worth Living. For the happiness, for the love, and even for the sadness, as the contrast makes the good things even better. I don’t think everything was an accident. We knew what we were doing.

One day we all will be gone. Let’s enjoy it while it lasts. We got this chance to live and not only rest forever. 

Would you prefer to sleep forever comfortably, or risk just for a while feeling true happiness?

Death is something we all know it’s coming, but that doesn’t mean we should be scared of it. Death just means going back to how it was before we were born. It was like sleeping. We don’t remember sleeping, and time flies. And it is wonderful being able to breathe and feel happiness. 

I wouldn’t choose to live forever. But I would choose to live again.


Really hope you liked it! I certainly liked writing it.

Making this blog was one great great decision. I never would have been able to put these thoughts into words. 

I’ll see you tomorrow with something new! : )
Imagine i'm in front of you talking about life really moving my hands and doing faces. That's basically how it looks like talking to me

Mental pillars

  Hope you enjoy the read : ) Today I’d like to talk about a concept I was thinking about today which I'm pretty sure already exists, but I didn’t search so for all I care I created it. Mental pillars. Mental pillars is the name I gave to describe what makes us behave the way we do, what makes us NOT allow ourselves to do certain things, and what defines our values. For example: If you’re in a relationship, and you’re someone really loyal, you have a strong mental pillar for loyalty. You WON’T allow yourself to cheat in any way, you’d feel horrible, it defines who you are. Another great example in my case specifically would be to ALWAYS do what I have to do every single day, like exercising to name one. It’s harder to skip a day of exercise. It’s how I am, who I am. I can’t betray myself. I hope it makes sense. All of this got me thinking about the things that we do, but wouldn’t like to. Drinking is a classic. Many people drink, they know it’s horrible for them, but they can’t r...

Ready for anxiety

  Hope you enjoy the read! : ) You know when you wake up on the absolute best side of the bed?  That’s how I woke up today. Anyway, today I’m talking about something that I don’t know how I didn’t talk about before. Everything happens when you’re ready for it. You’ll only be there where you wish to be when you’re ready. You get used to what you’re going through.  You might have heard from this topic already, but this is a really good ice cream I promise. So, what better way to explain a topic than by associating it to my life? : ) It’s easier this way as I really know what I’m saying. As some people may know, I work in a business as a CEO. Which means a TON of responsibilities, worries and meetings. It might sound… Hellish, but I like it, I was made for this. Throughout all this work, I’ve noticed the growth in my experience and in the pressure from everyone. As you might imagine, this tends to bring a bit of anxiety, and it did, but obviously anxiety shouldn’t stop you f...

Eventually. It's greed and pride

Hope you enjoy the read! : ) If you’re wondering how I manage to think of things to write here, I literally just sit for about a minute and just write the first interesting thought that comes to mind. A while back, I faced myself with the question:  “When does it stop?” I wasn’t referring to when does the emotions stop, when does peace finally arrive no no no no no, I meant when will I be satisfied with all I achieved? When do I stop striving for more?  I imagine you might be a bit confused by that, but let me explain. A few days ago, at night time, I didn’t have work to do, I already did everything I had to, but I still wanted more, I wanted to go further, to work more, to be even greater. So I started thinking of another big skill that I could learn so that MR TAYRONE gets even better. It had to be something that I could do by myself, alone, and all it took was determination.  Learning a new language came to mind. Another one. I already speak 3 languages, Portuguese, En...
