Death? What is Death? What is not? What can it be? What can it not be? Death can slowly pass over us like a warm quilt on a breezy night, or struck us like an unexpected punch to the stomach. It can come expected as a long planned appointment, or make a surprise visit like a long gone college roommate. The thing that is constant about Death is that it’s always inevitably. The way, the how, the who, the where is the variable. With Death being inevitable is what makes us mortal, but for some that does not matter. After all we’ll end up in Heaven? Or will our body will slowly decompose into the ground? Our will we be reincarnated onto this Earth? Will we live on some other planet? What will happen? The best minds have taken guesses at this, and I wish not to guess at such a broken puzzle. However, no matter what is plugged in for the variables the equation will always produce the same answer. Death is coming, and what can we do?

Death is coming, and what can we do?
ReplyDeleteLive.
There are two ways to live. You can live as if nothing is a miracle; you can live as if everything is a miracle.
i would like to know how your mind factors suicide into all of this.
ReplyDeleteGood points, liberating and imaginer. I also wonder if it's an option simply not to exist at all. :/ I've thought about it quite a bit since my grandpa passed away. I guess we'll all find out someday... Good entry.
ReplyDeletetwo of my good friends have passed away. this is a subject i spend a lot of time thinking about. i like the question at the end. i would say, live your life to the fullest, and do what makes you happy.
