Own belongings of the deceased

Years ago, when I was preparing a report on life imprisonment, A thief told me he had broken into a house that looked empty but was found dead inside.. She found him in the bedroom, covered with a blanket, curled up on himself, in a fetal position, as if death had taken him by surprise in his sleep. It didn’t smell bad because it was mummified. The thief looked at him for a long time, as if trying to understand him.

-Understood? -I wanted.

-I don’t know. Maybe the mystery the owner of the house is looking for I was there and I wasn’t there at the same time. He was there because I saw him with my own eyes, but his body was empty. I left without stealing.

I think what amazes us about the deceased is this: the capacity to be and not be at the same time. One day I asked the philosopher Ángel Gabilondo what the dead was.

“Something from someone,” he replied.

Really, I thought, something that comes from someone who no longer owns anything, not even his own organism. But the corpse is still someone’s thingLikewise, the recently deceased father’s plaid shirt remains the recently deceased father’s plaid shirt, which no longer exists. This means that the dead have property where they do not need labor, at least for a while.

When my father passed away, I kept one of his jackets that I really liked and that fit me perfectly. But it took me two years to make it my own. Until then, I would wear it occasionally and go out with it, but when I got to the corner, I would turn around and go home and take it off. It gave me a very strange feeling to claim it as a theft rather than an inheritance. I considered painting it, thinking that washing would strip it of its identity, but I was embarrassed that my father’s identity would be lost in the bowels of a machine, along with clothes of unknown persons. My father gradually put down the jacket and although I remember it when I wore it, it is now all mine. I never wrote about the story the thief told me because it managed to convey a surprise to me. now is where i started to save myself.
