NigaiAmai Yume, living on in someone else’s memory is all that some people can hope for, after death. But, of course, that is not life. This is a wonderfully powerful idea, Ursula; I love it!
I agree that the rabbit comparison is what really gets the concept across, but unlike Yume there, I understand that it is a *good* thing that more people don’t accept that truth, given that that particular “truth” is an imaginary concept made up for the hyena culture.
It’s the “remember the rabbit it ate yesterday” that sells this concept, I believe. “Memory not life.”
If only more people would accept that truth.
