Death at intervals
April 14th 2008 14:22
(inspired by the book of Jose Saramago)
And so the death went on a strike, so to use the normal words we employ today. But still, we keep on getting older. So, even if you don't die anymore, your body still gets weaker and weaker as time is still working...
So imagine the situation we have here. Think well. What's the point of living forever, if we wont be able to work, create, or if only, enjoy forever?
That would bring us to the things we chase in life, to have a work or a creation to be proud of when we close for balance, and to enjoy some good spare moments.
Well, sometimes people don't find something to be proud as a thing they've done, so they keep on enjoying life, that replaces the empty of not having anything to be proud of (at least this works for the young, don't know if i'll think this way when i get older..)
So, the problem is not to die, is to die before having accomplished something we can be proud of. Writing a book, working for some great cause, raising good children, these things when well accomplished gives you something that will last, even after you're gone. And leave at peace to die anytime after you've finished your mission.
And so the death can please come back to work, we've got to our conclusions. Ah, and the church would also be also quite happy to have death back around, otherwise who would go confessing their sins?
Thanks.
