Death.

Have you ever thought about death before? When and how would you be spending those last few moments of your life. Are you even afraid of taking that final breath in this world?

Chances are, many of us aren’t that frightened of our time ending. Whether it is because we accepted that finality of death is inevitable, it’s difficult to be scared of something that is so  vague and unknown, or maybe it’s cause we just decided to block ourselves from even thinking about it. 

Or maybe truth is, we’re all afraid of ‘the end’ without truly admitting it. In a way, maybe we substituted this fear of death with other fears. The fear of not being accomplish everything you want to do before time runs out. The fear of losing the people we love. The fear of not finding that one person who makes your heart skip a beat before your heart stops beating.  

Reality is, in the back of all our minds, we all know that time moves too fast that one day it will be the end. Life’s unpredictable; where when the last word of the last chapter of your story is uncertain. Maybe that’s why it’s so important for us to live each day to the fullest. Because those few seconds before death finally greets us, we want to look back at the life we lived and smile that it was all worth it.

That’s Just The Way It Is.

I always hated that excuse. That we should ignore something because “that’s life” or “that’s just the way it is”.  

People are dying. People are crying. People are trying to survive. People are getting hurt. People are in a state of depression. People are killing other people. People are causing other people to cry. People are allowing people to starve when they can help. People are causing people pain. People are making others feel bad about themselves. And this is happening every single day.

But just because that’s just how it is cynical and dark world doesn’t make it right. As hopeless at it seems to stop what seems like a constant in our lives, doesn’t mean we shouldn’t at least try to do something about it. Life isn’t the way it is just cause, but it depends if were willing to make a difference or not.
