The truth is that we are only here for a short while.

Yet the calender on the wall displays days from here until eternity. The watch winds up instead of down.

This is complete deception, is it not?

The only worthwhile watch in the world is not the one which counts Up, but the one which counts Down. Not the watch which tells you what time It Is. But the watch which tells you how much time you Have Left.

Unless we Viscerally come face to face with our own demise...

We will never know death.

How it looks:

Usage:

• put the skull icon (the 'death clock') on your Desktop
• replace DEATH_DATE in line 9 of death_clock.pyw with your estimated date of death (there are websites to do that)
• replace DEATH_CLOCK_PATH with the actual death clock path
• fill the paths in ScheduleTask.bat according to descriptions next to variable names
• run ScheduleTask.bat to set a daily scheduled task of updating days left on the death clock (You can manage all of your tasks directly from Windows Task Scheduler)
