Death...Something to Remember

So today I felt like writing about death again....a subject that surely is serious....to death (that was a joke by the way) Sentences such as "The only constant in life is change and death itself" or "live like you are going to live forever, but also think that you can die tomorrow" strike me from time to time. I may have mentioned as well in my previous writings, but really, failure to understand what this is about is going to be quite destructive for our life..and life after death, if you believe such a thing.

But regardless of our belief systems, there is no denying fact that all of us will pass this stage, whether we like it or not. No way of knowing when, how, where and even what circumstances regarding our death should make us be grateful that we live at all.I really believe that for those who are still living now, we are either lucky/still somehow be given opportunities to live our lives. There are so many factors that can make us die, freak accidents i.e;being hit by meteorites, regular traffic accidents, in any case, it is out of our control. Anyone who tells me they are in control of their lives are basically having some sort of delusion :)

I guess what I am trying to say here is that to live, we need to somehow remember death, from time to time. This will teach us to be more appreciative, loving human beings, understanding. It is not the most convenient exercise to do, but it does not hurt to try.....
