a couple of days ago,a very dear person to me passed away.
I wonder why people always deal with death so dramatically,like the dying person would ever miss anything or anyone for getting away from life.

Why do people always tend to think that Life is a treasure that everyone should stick to until his very last breath? life hasn't given us anything but wars,diseases,deceit,fear and madness.No one is ever happy with what life has to offer.Happy people are happy with what God has given them,gratefulness.

Life is only a treasure for those who have ambition and dreams,they should spend their whole lives searching for their goals and achieving what they are here for ..

BUT when the time comes,no one should blame destiny or God to be clear,this is where the journey ends.This is the best that those people could do.And this has been it since the very beginning of life on earth,People are born,they spend some time in a place in between called life,then they leave for some other journey.

What I am talking about here is how people started to think of eternity..Like death can be prevented and if it ever happens it's all due to their misfortune,What the..You're talking like walking Gods!
Since when death has known age,race,technology or whatever those people ever thought of..

People are always afraid of death as if the souls Really suffer for being away and having unfinished business in life.taking life for granted has distracted people from remembering why they are here,what they're doing,did they achieve anything so that humanity would ever remember them,how many people they have failed,how many times they've put their beliefs and concepts aside to justify their actions ..

Questions that will always remain unanswered these days,since no one ever thinks about them.I'm pretty sure that even when someone dies people don't really learn and observe,they just mourn and weep,and start catching up with every single type of pleasure in life in fear of not having time to cross everything off their shallow to do list,
1 )Hook up with someone.
2) win a drinking contest.
3) be the hottest guy/girl around.
4) have about 3 affairs at the same time.
5) dye their hair

..pointless?


What I think people should include sometime on their list is this :

1) Return to your true creator,don't let your day of judgment be the very first occasion you meet him.
2) be grateful for what you have.
3) let everyone remember you as a good person who made them happy for at least once.
4) rescue a helpless animal.
5) fight for justice.
6) fight for your freedom if it won't hurt people around you.
7) Be good to your parents and every person who ever stood by your side.
8) respect everyone,you have no right to discriminate between races,beliefs or whatever.
9) achieve something useful for humanity,something to be remembered by,something to keep you alive for centuries..
10) balance between your pleasure and spirituality.and don't mistake God for someone who wants you to suffer.He never wanted us to suffer,we just didn't take some quality time to get to know him.
11) never turn your back on someone who truly needs your help.
12) Stock to your personal values no matter how the world changes around you,nothing is outdated.
13) have passion in everything you do..work,studies,arts,love..everything.
14) suck your skills dry to get close to perfection..your skills are not just yours,they are everyone else's too.Once we all realize this,we will all live in perfect harmony.

I am quite sure that this person is in a better place now,I haven't seen that place yeah..But I know that any place other than life would be more peaceful than this hole of illusion we live in.

Thanks for taking time reading this.

I read a sentence about life and death... something like : "we shouldn't complain about the dead but we should pity those who remain and weep about the past and fear the death".

Life couldn't be without a end and this is why it precious. Your perspective is very close to mine.
Yeah life is basically pointless and we often forget that the game is not to give it a reason but how to give it a real sense for ourselves even if we lose someone else: the answer is not important, it wouldn't come by the reason of somebody else, it's what you do for looking for it.
I don't really believe in a god, i'm not affraid about an after life or not but, curiously, I believe in karma.
The more I decide to be happier the more good things happen. I cry my dead sometimes, but i remember that one day I will leave too and I prefer live the best way I can with my passions (etc. etc.) instead of live their death.

(Sorry for my english)

First of all,thank you for taking time to read this :blackrose:

About the mourning part..I'm not saying that people shouldn't "feel" the missing or mourning feelings,but what really doesn't make sense is people who are "convinced" with the idea of feeling sorry for someone who lost his life just because they had expectations for him.

Whatever we believe in .. one must set his priorities and define his exact destination in his not so long life.

Living with passion for everything you do is a great feeling indeed.

Thank you for stopping by and taking enough time to read,think and answer :blackrose:

No need to thank me, It's just strange to see your perspective.
Most people these days forget what's really important about life..

I am thanking you for showing me that there are still people who would really understand what I meant here.Everyone seems so preoccupied with unimportant things in life and they always tend to overlook what they have to change about their inner souls.No one even seems to be grateful for the life they've been given..They're just living because their cells haven't died yet.It's a tragedy,really.

It's actually really amazing for me to read what you wrote because I'm always talking about the same things with my friends... People work so hard on their outside, but the soul... Ahh the people of todays world have forgotten about their souls.
And it's crazy because in today's world... Things that were once virtues are now seen as being "lame" or just something outdated, and things that were seen as vices are now the things that people are competing with one another in and praising each other for....
It really is a tragedy.
