There's a new song called SWAN DIVE that's about one of the people who didn't want to wait for the flames to slowly kill him and chose to jump instead. But in the photograph, we can see that he didn't just jump, he was graceful in his form. It was not suicide. The people who worked up there were good decision-makers, and he made a logical choice. The best way to spend the rest of your life may look different when the time you have left is measured on the second hand. What's the trick for living gracefully in frightening times? Every day we make choices about how truly alive we're going to be in the time we have left. The more danger we're in, the more life becomes present tense, and there's no time to hide in fear.
