A life well lived.

As I write down the last words I would ever write for my journal, I take solace in my family as I pass down my journal to my son to be kept in family library for generations of Darwins to come. my name is Charles Darwin and I am the great great grandson of the father of the evolution theory.so that makes evolution my grand uncle, hehehe.. it seems my humour is not getting any better at my death bed.

I watch as my teenage grandson Chuck is crying ,not really understanding mortality but still realising that he won't be seeing grandfather after today . we have become very close after my retirement these past 5 years as I had nothing to do and watching anime with my grandson seemed to be as good as a quality time as any. I pass on to him a wooden pokeball that I have carved these past few days to commemorate our time watching his favourite anime. he cries even harder while his parents whisper in his ears and hug him to console him. he takes out a black scroll and passes it to me , I open it up and chuckle as i see it's content. it is a jolly rogger of a psychedelic skull with x shaped chromosome underneath insted of regular bones. It is clearly to commemorate our time watching my favourite anime one piece.

After talking some more with my family and saying our goodbyes ,they take a seat on the visitor's sofa while another man whome I've come to respect as my guru stands near me and smiles, he asks"are we ready",I nod. I take a meditative position and follow his direction for my samadhi(euthanasia). I have been diagnosed with cancer and have been given a few weeks of normal body function before I start losing my mind and my body to this disease. I have been spiritually active since my 40's and have known about the method to will myself to leave my body for some time now.

I don't know how long has it been since I started meditation but as I feel my soul detach from my body, I step out of it and shed my mortal shell as I become one with nature and void of space and the universe.

After an unknown time has passed in this state i feel myself being bound to something and as I come out of my omnipresent state. I feel myself bound in cocoon like state. I know what this is. it seems I have passed the samarasa cycle and have been reborn. I wonder what species I would be.i wonder if I will get to keep my memories beyond this cocoon or womb or egg depending on what species I turn out to be
