Concepts of Death and Life

 

            We often take our lives for granted, especially when we're young. We think we're going to live forever, but nobody knows what will happen. A person could be alive and well one moment, and dead the next. This shows the value of life and the uncertainties of death. Death is the, "great unknown," and that's why it's so frightening. Also, we perceive the inevitability of death long before it happens, which can be worrying, even tormenting. This fear and suffering keeps us from thinking seriously about death, as it impedes our happiness. We need to know how to do this, how to live in freedom, not being imprisoned by the future, and not being carried away by things in the present. When we can live our daily life deeply and genuinely, we begin to feel free and are able to live; we can see the true nature of life. You can arrive at a great freedom within you, and freedom is the essence of happiness. .
             All of us are equal, as far as life and death are concerned; we are all going to die. Death will happen to everybody. Everyone has to die however, before we die, can we live properly? Properly living and enjoying life, not being sucked in by your surroundings and thought. I am determined to live properly, until I die. If we are going to die, then we have to live the best we can. If we don't live the best we can why should we live? You are given an extraordinary thing, which is life, and you should use it to fulfil everything you desire, that is how life should be lived. .
             The saying, "To live well is to die well," takes on great meaning. If our life is filled with being caught in the restraints of pain and suffering, then our life doesn't have the same kind of meaning as if we live in freedom. Knowing that we have to die, I am determined to live my life properly, deeply. If we aren't able to live with peace, joy, and freedom before we die, then we live as if we are dead already. .
