Death and dying has been a widely studied phenomena for centuries (thanatology). Death is clouded in mystery and questions are plentiful; what happens to your soul when the body stops living? If death is painless, why does ‘dying’ hurt? And, why don’t we laugh at death and cry at birth?
It has been said that people are most alive and peaceful just moments before death. If that’s true, then why do we search our entire lives for happiness and fulfillment, only to achieve it at death?
Funerals and memorial services are often sad occasions. Remembering old times with loved ones who are no longer with us can be painful, but death is a part of life. Truth is, one day, our being on this earth will come to an end.
Imagine if you definitively knew, maybe by intuition or a higher power, that you were going to die tomorrow? Think about that for a moment. That’s some heavy stuff. Take a minute to reflect on the following questions:
Lastly, ask yourself: What would you do if you knew you were going to die tomorrow?
But what’s stopping you from doing it today? If tomorrow is not promised, you better get moving… you never know when your time is up. Being alive doesn’t mean you’re living. So while we’re alive, you might as well LIVE YOUR LIFE. Live it to the best of your ability, with no regrets. And don’t be afraid.
Cheers.
