Time is abstract.
Everyday, time is measured with an endlessly looping clock. In this way, time appears infinite.
With infinity, the value of a single day becomes null.
We created Life.cal Newsletter to break the illusion of infinity. Our mission is to bring back the value to all 86,400 seconds of each day.
The newsletter displays a finite grid of all the weeks that make up an 80 year life. The filled in boxes are weeks that have already passed. The blank boxes are weeks yet to come.
Once a week, you will receive a finite depiction of the weeks you have lived and the weeks not yet passed.
Optimistically, we hope this will remind you of the gift you hold every second.
A life calendar was invented by Tim Urban, who inspired this idea. If you are interested, please browse his article Your Life in Weeks.
