“Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever.”
― Mahatma Gandhi
I think most of us are scared of death, are you?.
We are scared mostly because
- We don't know what lies beyond, its the uncertainity that frightens us, nothing else.
- We feel we may not have done a lot of things we needed to do in a lifetime.
- We feel our responsibilities are not complete yet.
- We think, that people will miss us.
- We fear the pain we may suffer while dying.
- We are afraid that we will be punished for our wrong doings throughout the life.
- Last but not the least, we dunno if we are going to heaven or hell.
Isn't this exactly what we feel like, about death. Only logical conclusion I can come to is, that we are afraid of uncertainity, nothing else we know when a child is born he/she will crawl first then walk/ run , so we are generally aware of what come next but thats exactly the problem with death, nobody has ever returned and told what happens after death or if theres a afterlife, its just a big black hole.
So,lets let go the unknown and ensure that your life here is full of fulfilment, but how do you ensure that,
- Do everything right now
- Love like that no tomorrow
- Tell your loved ones that you love them
- Be prompt and prepare for all contingencies
- Take care of your responsibilities and don't postpone
- Live every moment of life to the fullest, enjoy it, smile and make others smile
- Remember all heaven and hell are here, theres just peace afterwards
Rather than worrying about unknown , make the best of whats available to you. Make a list today of what you would like to do, and just do it. Live it!! Love it!! and you will never regret a single moment of life nor will will you feel missed out.
So, cheers to life!!!!
