ROGER KANE: THE INMORTAL || Story || Literary corner

The existence of the human is so wide that diverges in many ways linked to a million possibilities, all with a single end: Death.

Roger Kane, an old loner who had been retired from music for some years after a long career, felted that his life had passed in vain, although he achieved to consecrate great fame and fortune, he saw inert as his days dissipated with the passing of minutes.

A day tired of monotony, he began to read books about life, death, time and immortality, leaning his interest for this latter. Kane thought he could find a metaphorical way to become immortal ... Although it is impossible, what led him to think that way?

This man spent a lot of his life working and every year that passing his professional growth was greater, but he never appreciated the genuine things that life gives us. He married and divorced a couple of times, he had no children and his list of friends was decadent. Probably loneliness was what caused him to become obsessed with lengthening his time on earth, he was afraid of reaching the end of his life feeling alone and empty.

What value can time have for an immortal? It was the question that changed the perspectives of that man who refused to accept the concept of death.

The soul that finds the way to deceive its own death appropriates time, but becomes a prisoner of space... Roger was already tired of feeling locked up, definitely prolong his life in that way was not what he needed.

On the other hand, death, can give meaning to life, knowing that every minute living can be the last, teaching us the value of time, and gives us an idea of the best way to achieve it.

This is how he gave his existence a 360 degree turn: He found beauty in the ordinary... he was reunited with the things that once made him happy, he gave value to his work since with his music he touched the soul of many people. He reconciled with the self-love he had lost years ago, he dedicated time and affection to the few people around him, loving and admired him, that's how he understood that there is no immortality for his body, but that someday his soul would be immortal if he gave a new meaning to his life.
