Life and Death The Terminally Ill

When there is life; there is death. It's a cycle that has no end thus far. Death is an inevitable fact, yet many of us fear it. The thought of that sends terrifying shivers down our spines. To even talk about it could be a big NO-NO! Never say that! It's bad luck! IS IT?

Death is one if not THE top taboo topic after sex? Perhaps. Either way; DYING is a heart wrenching experience to think about for most people who are prisoners of DEATH - killing me softly and slowly! Between Life and Death - when you are being challenged with a terminal illness; which do you choose? You would think people would choose LIFE but in reality most have chosen DEATH! You got to be kidding me right? Maybe!

What LIFE represents here is the spirit to LIVE - to make every moment and breath you have in this life count to bring peace, comfort and love within you and loved ones around you and of course others who come into your path - fully embracing death - YOUR REALITY! Making a difference in your dying moments filled with courage, love and peace knowing you have LIVED before and after.

When your life is taken away in a split of a second; it's tragic and at the same time could be seen as a "better way" to go with a "short term suffering"! WHAM-BHAM GOOD-BYE!

DEATH represents "Spiritual Death"! When one chooses to NOT LIVE his/her life because of "What's the point?" - "Life is not worth living anymore!"... You are on a journey to not just "physical death" but also a "spiritual and soulful death" with little peace nor meaning at the end as you "depart".

Terminal illness - A kill me softly and slowly then accelerate in time and kill me quickly condition! How slow and how fast would be dependent on how we carry ourselves in Mind, Body and Spirit in spite of whatever "discomforts" that come as a "package" with the illness. Death knocks on our door when our "time is up"! We have little control over that! The only possible control we have is how we see it and what actions we take from the time we are diagnosed to the time of our departure! Are we preventing rapid death or are we feeding the fire of death?

There is no right or wrong perspective except our own as we are accountable to our journey to death row. How we choose to prosecute ourselves is ultimately entirely up to us assuming of course we're still abled and coherent!

FEAR + GIVING UP HOPE vs ACCEPTANCE + COURAGE

DO YOU FEAR DEATH OR EMBRACE DEATH AND LIVE?

DO you CHOOSE LIFE or death?

TO LIVE OR TO DIE WITHIN?

How do you choose to prosecute yourself?

"A BED OF ROSES"

OR

"AN ELECTRIC CHAIR"?

"EMPTINESS - NOTHINGNESS"

OR

"SOMETHING WITH ABUNDANCE"?
