this is the nature ... we come to know the importance of person when he/she died. but yes its a bitter truth that most of the people lived with hunger and unhealthy life because they cannot afford and when they died, people give them 5 star funeral. when the person is alive, no one bothers his issues or pain but on the death path, every loses his mind. actually they are just overcoming their guilt of not taking care when that person was alive...
love the living so there should not be any regret when that person dies.
