Day 137 - Why 16,297 Days? Read more 👇 It's Follower Friday! I want to thank everyone who's part of this journey. The new followers, the OGs who have been here from the start. I see all of you, and I try to comment everywhere I can, because every single one of you matters to me. And I've thought of something special for you starting tomorrow, so stay tuned. 🖤 We're wired to think in years, and that's exactly where it goes wrong. A year feels endless, always another one waiting in reserve. A day doesn't give you that illusion. You either used it or you didn't. My dad's heart gave out too early. Both my grandfathers went early too. Add my own history with addiction into that mix, and this number stopped being a clever little calculation a long time ago. It's just my bloodline, looking back at me. So the math: average life expectancy sits around 80 years, roughly 29,200 days total. Subtract what I'd already lived by 35, and that's 16,434 to start. 137 days of posting later, that's 16,297 today. I'm a dad now too, and that's really what rewired everything. There's someone who needs me around in twenty years, and eventually stopped being a vague word. It has her face on it. Life of Jakob. Fitting, right? #ilybro #hopecore #motivationalpost #Love #mementomori - @lifeof.jakob
