on death

An odd thing happens when we die,our senses vanish.Taste,touch,smell and sound become a distant memory,but our sight?Our sight expands and we can suddenly see the world we left behind so clearly.Ofcourse most of what is visible to the dead would also be seen clearly by the living if they would only take the time to look.

We remember the world after we die,every detail.We remember,how afraid we were.What a waste!You see, to live in fear is not to live at all.We wish to tell this to those we left behind.But would it do any good?Probably not.We later understand there will always be those who face their fears and there will always be those who run away.

Death is inevitabe;it's a promise made to each of us at birth.But before that promise is kept,we want something to happen to us.Whether it is the thrill of romance ,the joy of raising a family or the anguish of great loss.We all hope to experience something to make our lives meaningful.But the sad fact is not all lives have meaning.Some people spend their time on this planet just sitting on the sidelines waiting for something to happen to them,before it's too late.
