A collection of ten inter-webbed human stories, told by Death and Life.

Each person we pass by has their own story. Each different. But we all share two unshakable  truths:
1. You were born.
2. You will die.

And Death and Life have experienced eons of human lives. Join them as they share ten different human stories. Ten individuals in their own lives connected with barely visible threads.
