Appreciate life
I figured out I was going to have to do this sooner or later. There happens to be a lot going on around us and we choose to restrict ourself to just the events occuring in our lives. The certainty of death is what makes life beautiful and worthwhile. The fact that all men must die and will die gives us a mentally that we only got a few years to spend on these earth.
Everyone is given a equal chance at life to make a difference,to live the dream,your background not withstanding. The presence of life breathes hope. A reassuring believe that anything and everything is possible. Count every passing moment as a blessing,every breathe,food,sleep,tears,laughter. There aren't no protocol in life,you create your own protocol,the means by which you live your life and it speaks in the outcome.
A lot going through my mind,arrays of wild thoughts. I figured out that only those who think,truly value life,the beauty,the expectation,the experience that accompanies living.
I can relate life to football. Everyone plays but not everyone is remembered. Only those who are willing and zealous enough to build a career for themselves are their praises being passed down the memory lane,we bask in their glory even long after they are gone.
I could also liken it to a set,all men are given equal chances to have a go at life and produce a result. You come and go,a new set is brought in to replace you but what is it you did that you'll be remembered for in people's thought.
When your name comes to mind,what is the first this that rings in their head. You see people die at every numeric age possible but you fail to question if that life made sense. Your life isn't meaningful because you've lived a hundred years but the fact that you will live a hundred years in the memory of this generation and the one to come.
Can't seem to get over a junior of mine who was confirmed dead just a few hours ago,a young man not up to his twenties. He was presume to have been used for rituals and sorts. Life is a privilege. Every breathe presents an opportunity,a chance at a better life,a clearer future.
I would ask you one question right now. If death were to come knocking,what will you be remembered for?? What are the thought and experiences that will live on in the memory of others. In acknowledging the presence of death,we appreciate life.
It's time for a change
