Death

The thought of death grips my heart, my feet go weak.I wonder where ? when? and how will i go?
how old will i be?
what would i have achieved?
will anyone remember me?
what is beyond the grave?
Somehow the thought of falling into a deep sleep or being wiped off the face of the earth does not feel very comforting.Just the thought of it numbs the depth of me.They say live life to the fullest but how can i when death lurks in every corner,every risk,every hope, every light, every darkness.

Death lurks behind every door waiting to freeze us to the core with fear. Yet in the face of all that we need to spit in death's face, laugh and live our life to the fullest. If we give in to the fear of death then he has won. You might die in your sleep....at age 99. Enjoy the living.

Death makes life worth living, because it is when you feel the intrusion of ominous things which make you realize your mortality is when you are most alive.....the challenge to survive and thrive and beat the odds is what life is about, so live and let death visit when he will and may he find you at the peak of your potential......

Death is a part of this life, don't be afraid; you won't enjoy life if you are afraid to die.
