Memento Mori

A Poem by J.C. Rabanes
"

The fear of death follows from the fear of life. A man who lives fully is prepared to die at any time. Mark Twain

"
Memento Mori

Life is beautiful but if you don't make meaning out of that its pointless.
Life is ain't about finding ways to live but also preparing yourself to die.
One's soul is the ticket to the realization that we'll have to die.
Whether you like it or not, even if you cried tears of thousand miles.

Many centuries had passed people always afraid of that.
It was like a ghost that keep flashing in our minds.
What if I die? and what if you die?
Is there a things you want to do before that?

Our time here is precious, don't be just like a sleeping horse.
Keep moving, love your fellows as long as they are alive.
Be thankful for your life, and if you do for sure you are not afraid to die.
Fears are just a reaction of our mind, anyway.
Reaction from the things you don't want to encounter.

Live as if it is your last days, be glad to your fellow.
Give respect so that you will be respected.
And in the end if your time had come, you are totally accepted the fact.

"Remember that we will die."

The message in this piece is very powerful, and every word you've written is 110% true. We shouldn't let our fears keep us from doing the things we want to do, because we only have one life in which to do those things. As usual, you've written a wonderful piece here! :)
