Living and Dying expenses

I was reading a book
review in Philippine News. One comment suddenly jumped into my eyes:"the two sharpest
verbs ... are living and dying", while recommending chapter "Living and Dying Expenses".

Another recommended chapter is "Time is Gold/Money is Paper". 
The book is named "Surreality", which the author Carissa Villacorta,
is selling on Amazon.

On another note, the death of somebody you knew , will bring  you face-to-face with the Death. I asked myself, how will the world judge me if I die today.
Most likely I am ignorable. Unless I died miserably, then it becomes an excellent sad story to put in the news. In any case, no one will care how I lived.

This is ironic and makes a lot of sense, because living is the normal state of everyone around (those who died are not around any more). Why making a fuss over the normal state? Unless it's a scandal, of course.
What lowly being I am one of.
