the ultimate truth

Perhaps there is just one truth. the ultimate one. death. is there anything more certain than that? by god i wish there was. its like the culmination of whatever you've done, whatever you've achieved, whatever you were or whatever you wanted to be. it all ends there.

i'm tempted to think what death is like..and a chill runs down my spine. i cry. i dont wanto die. nobody does. but then, thats the inevitable for you. tell me, what happens when we sleep. is it not what death must be like? unconscious and unaware. just lying down there. dreaming about somethings, fantasies or real people. but everythings far from the truth. and then waking up with no idea what happened in the past 6hrs. for more than 1/4th of the day, we actually die..everyday!

and then life gives us a second chance. everyday. what for? to make ammends. yes. am i discovering a philosopher in me. don't know but it sure sounds nice. we wake up everyday from that state of half-death and then live the next 3/4th to make the same mistakes again! surely sounds foolish. and by the time we realise this fact its already too late. on the final bed.

perhaps i should start making my ammends. "Be the change you want others to be". i start tomorrow. right now, its time to sleep.
