To live?
If to live is to die, then isn’t mowing the lawns a lot like dying as well? 
I guess my question would be better phrased like; what is it not like to be dead?

Brief set of unconsciousness then you wake up to your level of attainment..
Or get lost in the bardos..
To be reborn again..
Or with help attain a new form with same knowledge.

So it’s not like that yeah?
Is that an exotic way of saying the elements that make up your being are repurposed for future life?

I used to entertain this idea, but also imagined that all cats were telepaths.

really. they don't have the social/learning capacities that dogs have but they are smart in their own ways. like some just learn to use the door handle and other tasks. my cat jumped on my lap and cried when we were outside, a few days before he was put to sleep. like he was a really clever person that has learned a lot in his 17 years of life, first lived at my sisters place where he once disappeared for 2 weeks and then returned completely thinned out, then at my mums (and dads) place in my teenager years. then i moved away and my mom died and he chose me as his food/shelter giver. but ít really felt like a deep and spiritual connection. once, still at my moms place after she died, i went to the woods behind the house with a friend and he decided to follow us almost all the way up. but then i preferred to return. it's like with people. there are several not so smart ones and some pretty smarties. shroomed with him several times
