“We didn’t choose our birth then we don’t choose our death- Dr. Powell of House MD”
Death will make us realize how short ones life could be. Death rather than anything there is on earth is the most dreaded thing that one could wish for. Sudden death will make us numb for some time. One could take only days, weeks, months or even years to get over such painful experience. I myself fear death, when I once fell into a sudden deep sleep and tried to wake myself up but I couldn’t. The first thing I told myself then was I would not like to die on that moment.. in that pitch black vision. I would not like to wake up one day seeing my life pass me by. I fear that day. For those young lives taken away, the Lord has reasons for such. We celebrate life with them, spend joyous moments with them, see them pass away then we grieve. That’s how fast life can be. Faster than the speed of a bullet. My friend, life isn’t owned by us. I do not know exactly who gave us the right to live, who taught us to breath but for those attached to their religion they believe it was given by the God whom they trust. Borrowed time, borrowed life, borrowed breath. We are transients in this world. Even the world we live in is like a transient space we could rent.
We have the right to grieve, to feel the pain, to reminisce the good times. But then I would like to believe that souls have feelings too. If God can feel souls can do. If their watching us, they feel for us too. Will souls be happy to see us grieve and regret the time when we weren’t able to spend time with them? I wasn’t born a Theologian neither a Philosopher but I was raised with the idea that souls do have a paradise of their own, A paradise better than our transient world a place better than this war zone.
I would like to dedicate this post to a very and I mean very good friend of mine. You know who you are. I feel for you my friend. Condolences..
