The doctor tells you you’re going to die no matter what you do.

This is wrong speech when one is trying to maintain the best quality of life, even though the lifespan is limited. (How many years of education, and still ignorant?)

Paradoxically, he’s correct - for all.
You are eventually going to die.

It’s simply that you feel far from it.
Your body works well in youth, and, as a result, you are largely unaware of ease.
(Ain’t nobody misses the well till the water runs dry.)

There’s the parable of the fish in the puddle, and how it delights in swimming, unaware of its predicament.

You have a short time to become a human being.
