Death
Death never fails to intrigue me.
No, i'm not scared of it, not of mine at least. I'm not the least bothered of how I'd go, or even when. I just wonder what it'd be like to be up there..looking down and watching people go about their lives and not being a part of it. Wonder if i'll ever be remembered.And if i am, for what reasons?my strengths?my faults?my occasional bitchiness?my heartlessness?
Will i be missed?
Often, I lay at night envisioning my funeral, the atmosphere and conditions surrounding the event (if you can call it that). I know I want to be buried in a white coffin,in a white silk,with white roses.imaginative huh?I guess the reason everything's white is to make up for the mean,insincere,impure and unholy things that i have said/done and not said/done.
That aside,I wonder who'd actually come and see me for the last time,who'd shed a tear? Besides the people who'd have to be there (think family members) who else would,not out of obligation?How many lives have I touched? Am i significant enough to deserve their prayers and blessings?
I guess it boils down to me needing some sorta validation. Maybe that explains why when things dont seem quite right, I tend to read through my friendster testimonials. As silly as it may sound, it does draw a smile. It does make whatever the problem much less of a problem.
Right till this day, I really dont know why I've been put here on earth. I dont know my role, and I dont have the script. Then again, how many of us do? How many of us know what we're called to do,be it in work,relationships, or anything else for that matter? If I dont know, then how am I gonna work at it? To take one day at a time is an overrated advice, how long are we supposed to just go through the motions?
Wonder where these pretty feet will take me...

Three are no accidents and no one dies under any circumstances who is not prepared to die. This applies to death through natural catastrophe as well as to any other situation.
I can assure you that death is another beginning. You have lived before and you will live again, and when you are done with physical existence, you will still live.
I want you to feel your own vitality. Feel it travel through the universe and know that it is not dependent upon your physical image.
In certain terms, you are all dead and have been for centuries. In other terms you are not yet born and centuries will come before you walk upon the surface of the earth.
Life implies death, and death implies life--that is, in the terms of your world. You could not die unless you were the kind of creature who was born, nor could you have a present moment as you consider it.
Your body is aware of the fact of its death at birth, and of its birth at its death, for all of its possibilities for action take place
Deep stuff..got me kinda thinking,you're right when you say that death is another beginning..life on earth could be said as transitionary..:)before we move on to experience something greater,perhaps? but at each stop,everyone's presence should be valued...
life is like a white canvas,each of us splatter colours of our own in our own designs,creating a unique piece of abstract art that can be interpreted in many ways,depending on the individual...
