@valorforfreedom. Thank you, my friend, for the shoutout and mention. This was a very good article. Thank you for sharing these thoughts on death. This was a powerful message, and it showed in your writing, which is quite good, I have to say.
I wonder what it is about death that we fear? I've always asked myself this. So far, the answer I come up with is that people are afraid of the unknown. And that fear of the unknown keeps that fear fed; strong and able to wreak havoc on your thoughts, goals, ambitions. Death is the most natural part of life, as you said, like birth. We will all die someday. For me, being so close to death made me see life differently. It made me appreciate all the little things in life that much more. Death can impart great wisdom to those who've walked that dark veil between the living and dead.
But, you can take these experiences, and share with the world, the knowledge gained from such wisdom. I don't know what'll happen when I die. But, I won't worry about it while I'm still living. If there is nothing after death, then let my life mean something. Let my wisdom, my knowledge, help others in some way. Because that is the greatest gift we can give as humans. The gift of knowledge, wisdom.
Your comment is worth a post, certainly belongs to the greatest comments that I have ever read here on Steem.
You join Steem and you convince with quality and information, if you write every day you would certainly get big amounts of money, I am sure of that.
The power of the struggle.
Thank you. Perhaps I'll have the time for daily posts in the near future. I'm juggling school, homesteading chores and a few other things right now. SO, since I can't post everyday, I make sure to at least post meaningful posts when I do. Not like so much of the "fluff" that gets passed around on this platform, and makes a ton of money. And since you say that could make a good post, I may just do that.
Your priorities decide where you put your time in.
I am looking forward to a new post from you.
