There are a number of things that you should never really forget about: Getting a good night’s rest. Regular and balanced exercise. Thinking of others before yourself as a basic rule. We fill our lives with love and song and action, reaching out for one thing – Purpose. But there, snaking its way around us while on our way to that restorative slumber is the one stark truth:

You Will Not Live Forever.

And that’s okay. That’s why I’m here, to remind you in as many ways as possible. But for now, please consider my new book and project I DON’T REALLY LOVE YOU – And Other Gentle Reminders of Existential Dread in Your Everyday Life by me, Alex Beyer, that takes pet photography and contrasts them with the dark humor of existentialism.
