YOU'RE GONNA DIE

GET COMFORTABLE WITH THE IDEA.  ONE DAY YOU WILL EXPIRE, AND THERE WILL BE ABSOLUTELY NOTHING YOU CAN DO ABOUT IT.  ONCE YOU BECOME MORE EMBRACING OF THE NOTION THAT YOU WILL, IN FACT, DIE.  THEN YOU WILL BE ABLE TO DO SEVERAL THINGS, WITH EASE.  YOU WILL LIVE EACH DAY, AS IF IT WERE YOUR LAST.  THIS MEANS, THAT YOU CAN LEARN TO NOT TAKE LIFE SO SERIOUSLY, WHILST, TAKING LIFE SERIOUS ENOUGH TO CHERISH THE TIME YOU HAVE.  YOU CAN LET GO, OF THE MEANINGLESS DRIVEL THAT OCCUPIES YOUR LIFE.  YOU CAN ALSO, FIND MEANING IN A PURPOSE THAT FULFILLS YOUR EXISTENCE.  EITHER WAY, BOTH ARE POSITIVE FRAMES OF MIND THAT CAN GRANT YOU A SENSE OF FREEDOM.  IN THE END, YOU DIE.  DEATH IS A REWARD TO THOSE WHO LIVE WITH PASSION, AND A CURSE TO THOSE WHO LIVE WITH REGRET.  YOU EITHER, GET BUSY LIVIN', OR GET BUSY DYIN' (SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION).     -  925
