Memento Mori - Brittany Wyatt
Introduction
The content of this book is meant to cause introspection on life. All are given a life to live. However, each of our lives is not the same. We each have our own set of situations, circumstances, and snapshots that make up the lives that we live. Yet, we all questions life’s meaning. Many poems in this book illustrate these common questions, the questions that we ask on a daily basis regarding things both grand and mundane to try and draw meaning from our endless, everyday behavior. The pendulum keeps on swinging back and forth, time is short, and soon all meet the graveyard. Hopefully these poems will cause reflection for each of us, as we all search for purpose through our brief journeys.
It is not within man to direct his own steps –Jer. 10:23
