Death.

I saw death very closely recently. I got emotional not for the person who died, or people related to him. I got emotional because I realized that, one day same will happen to me. Also, one day I will be in a position where someone from my parents or some one I like the most will die.

It is very naked truth of life. The end. The way people treat the dead body is also remarkable. It takes an half an hour to make the body disappear. People cry for a while then get back to normal talks, they remember the good times, the bad times. People related to dead person cry because they know there are still unfinished wishes, untold emotions, and they cry because they can't handle it that they are also going the same path. I don't know how to react to death.

We were at the crematorium, on one side we pushed the body inside, and other side the whole world was revolving as it is, people on the street were in their routine.

From death I learned that there nothing to fret or fume about in life. If you know your end wouldn't you try and make sure that you enjoy your moments. When I go for vacation or so, I make sure that we laugh, we stay awake till late and make most of our time. Isn't this apply to our life journey. We should be always in happy mood, make most of our moments here.

Death, this incident should make people understand that there is nothing great about keeping grudge, or feeling envy or by regretting anything. What we got is this moment. I feel that everything else is taken care of.

If I imaging that I am no more, I am dead then what. We entered this world without any awareness and we will go unawre. The mystery will continue fore ever. This thoughts makes me more fearless.

Any I still get angry for few things, I still get tensed for few things, but I want to be free of these feelings. I want to give more forgiveness, I want to accept everyone the way the are.

It frustrates me when I see people around me including me cribbing or complaining about the things which doesn't matter for me actually. I always feel that nothing matters, just being here is the biggest asset, gift we have got.

Lets just be here, enjoy and perish.

Well, I heard a nice remark in an interview "You can't get out of life alive".
And a friend of mine gave us the ultimate Truth "Life sucks and then you die!"

I can understand your predicament about how to deal with death. Different strokes for different folks. Whatever works for you to keep going till you reach the End. That's why we have this whole civilization to keep us busy.
