ok this is my first post, so i'm not sure what to put in exactly. so i shall start with the first thing i thought about when i was very young. why do people die?
answer 15 years ago: why? can i not?
answer 10 years ago: God decided he didn't deserve to live anymore so bye bye
answer 5 years ago: Man will die one day. it just happen to happen
answer now:why do we ask why? death is part of the flow of life. simply because we die, do we cherish those around us. one should not question the existence of death. rather one should accept it and move on.
"do you fear death?"
no one does. we think we do. we simply fear losing what we gained in life. we fear how we die. we fear what will happen after we die. what did we gain in life? love, happiness, money, family, experience. what is left when we die? money does not follow us through to death. family? when your immediate relatives die too, is family still there after death? love? same. will we feel happy after we die? i don't think so. whether there is an afterlife, emotions will no longer apply. why should we fear losing what we gained in life? everything will be lost at the end. HOWEVER, we should strive to make a difference in everyone we meet. only then, will something remain after we die. how will we die? is there a need to be afraid of it? they say that the journey is more important than the end. does it apply to death too? when you finally die, do you remember how you died? will thinking about how you are going to die change anything? in fact, will it not just affect everyone around you? finally, what happens after we die? does it matter? now that is a question to think about next time.
