Ponder...

At this point of life, what have you accomplished?
and at the age of 30,40,50,60,70... what will be the thought that will haunt your mind day in and day out? most of the time, when i lay my eyes on the elders, i ponder...

if i were them, what will i be thinking right now? looking at the younger generations after mine, will i laugh at their annoyance of true happiness? because, i am sure, as we aged, it will become clear for many if not most of us, of what is important. what is the main point of going through our lives. what is to gain and to lose... acceptance to failures and stand up with strengthen willpower. as we aged, and as our youth starting to whish away, should we be sad? are they sad? are they afraid of dying? or will they just get on with their life happily and welcoming the soon to come death with open arms? i doubt they will be afraid of dying, but i am sure what they afraid of, is not death itself. it is the consequences of death- departing with their beloved sons and daughters, and for some, this material world. some, worried if upon their death, they will no longer be remembered. it is ever so vital that our existence or "pre-existence" is remembered, because it is human nature. we want to feel loved and needed. If i were in the position of the elderly, yes, i will be afraid of dying, but it's because i just can't leave all the wonderful people, places and memories behind. may i take all the memories with me?

50 or 60 years from now, where will i be?

Appreciate life...

Why people choose to commit suicide, but not to face responsibility or the possibly disastrous event in his life? Is it easier to face death than fear of losing something fragile like credibility, fame, losing face, wealth, to face reality? Almost everyone fear of death. Yes, you can't say everyone is fear of death. Because there's never such a thing that is absolute. Hardly ever. so maybe those who choose to commit suicide aren't fear of death. well... that's just an assumption.

So, if they are not really thinking that facing death is something like meeting old friend, why do they have the courage to face death, than to face responsibility? those who have chosen to end their life early... do they not fear of death? why do they do it then? if they fear of death? what made them choose to follow this horrible one way trip instead of trying to solve the seemingly disastrous thing happened to them? yes, some tend to think that it is the end of the world when our deeply loved partner left us for someone else. To them, it IS the end of the world. the world just crashes in and they feel suffocated. If they do not get suitable advice and support, some... like many of those who had done it, choose to end their lives early. But come to think of it, the disastrous things happened to you and me, maybe is not that disastrous after all. There are more and more people out there who had to go through lots of what we call "disastrous events", which may be tens and thousands time more tragic comparing to the problems we faced.

Sometimes, it is good not to take life too seriously. Indeed. 'Cause when you tensed up yourself too much, you might get too involved and end up feeling miserable when things do not go your way. Try to lay back, relax... spend more time reading and talking to those interesting people around you. Exchange ideas, and jokes and anything you know about. Sharing always leads to stimulation of thoughts and ideas.. you might eventually get a soul mate who you would never dream to missed out in this lifetime. who knows?

CHEERS! xD
