Everyone who is born will die.
The incidents that lead up to death can stir up so many emotions.
People die because of
other people's carelessness or stupidity
of their carelessness or stupidity
of other people's cruelty
of other people's kindness
of having the wrong genes
of being in the wrong place at the wrong time
of old age
But everyone dies.
What do you do about it?
Live your life knowing it is not forever.
Get a job doing something you like
Try not to hurt anyone else by your carelessness
Try to keep your relationships with other people so that you would have
no regrets of your actions if they were gone in the next minute, hour or
day.
Remember it is easier to be satisfied with less than to want more.
Remember that possessions own you instead of you owning them.
Remember that "being important" is in the eye of the beholder.
Count your blessings every day and try to give someone else at least one
blessing a day, whether it be a kind word, a kind action or something material.
This is not always easy and no one is ever perfect but the more of it you
can achieve, the better your life and the lives of those around you will
be.
