life and death, it . . .
. . . is quite the thing that lies in my mind for quite some time now. It’s always part of our life, whether it’s ours or . . . theirs.
But, we don’t really notice it, do we? Yes, it is and will always be part of our life, like literally, life? - but we don’t really pay attention to it.
Death - it’s something that separates us from someone or tears us apart from everyone, whether it be accidental, intentional , willing or time. It does change. It brings sense and a reaction to this action. It brings peace. And it brings deep conflicts and emotions to shine out.
The thought of death is far in the future, but near to the present, even if we don’t really like it, depending on the person.
It’s always near us -
- just like life is always surrounding us too. It is everywhere you can see, feel, hell - even touch it!
But, just like death, it isn’t always . . . nice. Life can be and will be tough, to all of us, to poor, to rich, to medium, it is always a challenge, whether it’s something we can conquer and win or something that is just crushing.
But it is something that we need to do to move on in this life.
Life and Death,
counterparts, opposites, but cannot exist without the other.
It’s always there. Everyday, someone new would be born, and today is their birthday! 7,55 billion people and there isn’t a chance that everyday is a birthday for someone in this world?
But just like it would be today that it’d be someone’s first breath or birthday somewhere in this world, it would be someone’s last breath or death day. It would be someone’s last day to live.
We would mourn on this day to this person and others would celebrate their new born kid's birth. Others would be born on this day at this very moment and we would be dying at that time.
Sure, it would not be at this very exact time, but it could be - wouldn’t it? The thing is the date it’s happening.That is it what I am trying to clear here:
While we are living our life, others are living their last moments;
while we are here, lying in a crashed car, praying that we survive, others would be lying on the couch and think of nothing special, watching TV.
Things are happening, even though we don’t see nor notice it. They still happen and there is no knowing of it.
Life and Death -
- there is always balance between these two things at.
And there is always an in between there.
