a phrase, for a celebration of life phase:

My dad was alive for 492,366 hours on earth, before returning to the cosmos.

today, age 56 and two months, i just lived beyond my dad, now for 492,367 hours, hooraaayyy, a day to celebrate!!!

40 years ago, age 16 i learned in that dead dad moment, that life is short, and set out my ambition accordingly.

My moto in my 20's was 'fucking get on with it!'

I did, and have lived a fulfilled life already, and am fortunate to be a happy chappy still alive.

approaching this life milestone, that fuelled my evolution, i asked around if there was a term, a word, or a phrase, for outliving another person's time on earth. It has been profound in my life, but apparently there is not much written about it out there. Not even Aristotle or Jung? Huh!

Not eveyone ponders such concepts, but I do. So i closed my eyes and came up with a new phrase.

beyond + yonder + day = 'Beyonder Day'

the day that you live beyond another person's total hours alive on earth.

 

eg:

"hoorayyy, today is my 'beyonder dad day',
when i outlive my dad's allotted time on earth, yep, grateful to still be alive. how can i help :-?"

you can have a beyonder day for anyone special to you...
at some point soon i will also live beyond Prince, my beyonder Prince day etc.. bless his soul, or live beyond Anthony H Wilson, etc etc etc etc.. living beyond special people to us... now has a phrase.. just in time i found it!


i am delighted all our special people left us all them magic memories that power us forward.

i celebrated my dads equal life alive - today,

many happy beyonder days to you all - living onwards. Janek xxx
