Death

Let's talk about death. Many people are afraid of death but the truth is, no one should be afraid of death because death is part of nature. Death is how this nature keeps going round.

Everything dies because it is part of the deal when we are born. It is just like taking a loan. When the time is up, you will have to pay up.

The same thing goes with our life. Our life is loaned. When the time comes, we are to give it back to who we loaned it from. We can't hide from death, death comes when the time comes. The only thing that matters is when it will come and how it will come.

Death comes in many ways:

1) You die a fast death, the most common of fast death is when you are knocked down by a car. When you die a fast death, there is no chance to say goodbye to your loved ones.
2) You die a slow death, the most common of slow death is when one is contracted with a cancer that is incurable. But when you know you are contracted with cancer, there will still be time for you to say goodbye to your loved ones and you will have the time to be prepared for that day when death comes to collect your debt. However, when that moment comes, it will be a painful death.

So, when one is contracted with cancer, one should be optimistic, one should be thinking on the bright side. Being contracted with cancer would also be a blessing in disguise. Only because when you are contracted with cancer, you know that death is already knocking on the door and so you will have the chance and time to say goodbye to your loved ones and to forgive.

Before one dies, one should forgive, not others but himself. Forgive yourself for making wrong decisions throughout your whole life. Most important of all, forgive yourself for not forgiving others.

One should never be afraid of death but should be prepared for it as it will come in the end. There is one saying that, 'Everything that begins will eventually come to an end' and the same goes with life.

Many in the past wanted to understand life and tried everything they could but eventually when one dies, one will truly understand life. Life is like a lit candle, you can't expect it to burn forever. There will eventually be a day when it burns till its very end and becomes history and life is just like that. You can't expect yourself to live on forever, be with the ones you want to be with forever, there will eventually be a day when you have to part with your loved ones and everything here.

So why not save the time when you think of ways to live on longer, to do things that is good to this society, care for others, care for those in need. When we die, it is not that we will leave here completely. To those whom we helped, we cared, we loved, we will always be there for them, deep inside their heart, where love is kept, as it is not our soul that will be left behind, but our love, that will always be in their heart.
