Death
Cold and solem, pale and lifeless, these are some of the first things that come to mind when you hear the word Death. In the past years I've lost family and friends and eachtime one would go I would get this deeper understanding of death and with the understanding came thoughts of the dead and how would it be? That's where I remembered that if your dead your no longer here you can't come back your time on earth as we know it has come to a screeching hault and there's nothing you can do to help it. It's kind of like drowinging if you think about it, you can see your life from a blurry distance slowly drifting away. It is the afterlife that most of us think most differently of, the Catholics and pergatory, the Christians and judgement, the Hindu and reincarnation, and so many other religions and their beliefs. The bottom line is sooner or later death will catch us all and it is with in you to choose where you shall spend your eternity. I believe what we do in life echoes in eternity and part of understanding death is that it is an eternity. Eternity is forever and to think about it could drive one insane. I've thought about all these things and it kind of freaks me out, but then again I'm happy I'm alive I'm here and it's only a thought. Death really is cold and lonesome, it is dark and at the sametime has light to it. Death is not the end but the beginning of life. We all didn't just live this life here on earth for nothing. What do you think? What If you die right now? Are you afraid of death? Tell me...

Ernest beautifully said this is a very touchy situation that everyone must face in their future. What we must do is prepare for it and make sure that our families are secured before we pass but not all the time it is going to be that way but that is just the way life is. Keep posting, your a beautiful writer. I want to see more.
