A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

When we sleep, we are technically half-dead. So, wouldn't it be safe to say that everyone currently living has died many times?

Petite mort, translated from French, means “little death”, and is generally used as a euphemism for orgasm.

Some of us have died... a lot.

But like, tiny. For some of us multiple tiny deaths in rapid succession.
