So here's something I found about 10 mins back. I won't say who wrote it. Know this, she was naive, beyond imagination. This is about 8 years old? The post, not the author.
"Death...
Some people obviously think that death is probably the most depressing topic to talk about. I think otherwise. I think death is one of the most important topics to talk about. Why? Because I think its the awareness of death that prepares us better for life. We all know that death is inevitable. Nothing we can say or do would help us escape death. Its always right beside us but the only difference is that we'll never know when it decides to strike. I think for most people, including me, its death that compels us to live our lives to the fullest. We all have our dreams and aspirations and we must do whatever it takes to fulfill them, because we don't know which minute will be our last or which day will be our last day. When I talk about chasing our dreams, I don't say that we must fulfill only our dreams. Being practical is always very important. On our way to fulfill our desires and ambition, we must not get so fully absorbed that we forget to admire all things that we pass by when we are on the path of life. Death waits for us and will always creep in on us when we're not expecting it. Thus its always wise to live each minute we're given like its our last and to live today like there will be no tomorrow. It is therefore our duty and in our own best interest that we understand the miracle of life given to us and be grateful for where we are today. We must strive to achieve all our dreams because we as humans only know that the angel of death awaits us. But when she'll make her move will always remain a mystery. "
Ummm... cute? Lots of wisdom back then eh? :)
