got that?
they say we are born alone..
how is that so..?
i find that unfathomable... one cannot be born alone
it defies logic
one is born(e) by a another being (a female) of the species.
therefore not alone
and probably, things going well, there will be others there, doctors, nurses, midwives, witchdoctors and wellwishers
and we die alone
horse shit
chance are that one dies with others by your side
medicos, friends and or family
even if none are these are present, the thoughts of loved ones must accompany the individual in their final moment..

alone un cazzo
