I have been alive for 8,614 days (1,230 weeks, or 23.58 orbits around the sun). Since consciousness does not begin at birth — earliest autobiographical memories form around age 3.5 — I have been consciously experiencing the world for roughly 7,336 days (20.1 years). In that time, the Earth has carried me 22,167,474,336 km around the Sun and spun me 345,249,120 km on its axis. I have witnessed 291 full moons, lived through 94 seasons, eaten roughly 25,842 meals, spoken an estimated 137,824,000 words that I hope their majority were sensible, kind, and left no harm. All of this amounts to 0.00786128% of the ~300,000‑year history of Homo sapiens. According to current WHO estimates, the global average life expectancy is 73.3 years, meaning I have lived 32.2% of my expected lifespan, with roughly 2,594 weeks (18,159 days) remaining.
