The word that corresponds to this short horizon of mine is non-existence. It cannot be described because it is a place, a time. Last week, in a conversation with a doctor, I realized that we are stopping chemotherapy, it does not work, and there is no alternative. Therefore, non-being is that which best expresses, most accurately expresses the future. Of course, all the time, throughout the year, through a contraction that is constantly growing, the time when his hourglass is empty, fear swells, in which at first there were some cracks, some hopes, some, perhaps, and slowly fear occupies all existing time and is so absolute that you are no longer afraid, because there is nothing moving, flowing in it. There is only what you live for and that, on the one hand, is gloomy and ominous, a dystopia, on the other hand, there is real life, this is every day that you strive for, take care of. Food, reading, the weather outside, beautiful flowers, friends, communication, conversations, above all interests, the power of ideas that never ceases to exist and which manages to radiate out of time. So there are two sides, and life is one that wins every day, so this solid mass of fear stays there, frozen and hardened, and allows you to live the way you live. Further, looking up, non-existence is the most realistic… It’s a little funny, of course, no non-existence is realistic, unless you see it from the side, and I see it now from a very close distance.

He passed away some time ago.
