Life is a story of irony; twisted like a pretzel knot, bitter like a dark chocolate, complicated like a labyrinth… and death is simply the destination. But that is actually the other irony of reality. Most of the time, the common lessons in life that we thought we already knew, were also the ones we oftentimes, tend to forget.
To live life is not about preparing for death. The sad ironic reality is that, oftentimes, people become so busy preparing for their death that they forgot that they have a life to live.
Death may come anytime, and I believe that it is such a blessing that we do not know exactly what the future holds and we do not know exactly the time and date of our death so that we could live our lives with a hope that there is still tomorrow and not fearing that you have but a small period of time on earth. I believe that God designed our future to be unknown for us because He wants us to live with hope and not in fear in every waking day. Think about it, isn't it such a nightmare to live while counting every minute that pass you by because you know exactly the hour of your death – right?... it is like you are not yet dead but every minute that pass you by kills you…
Sometimes… ignorance is really a bliss.
It is an irony of reality that death is a proof that we once lived because no one dies without living first. Death is not something to be scared of or to be prepared for.
The hidden irony is that we have to live life like there’s no tomorrow and hope for life like there is always a bright tomorrow.
Life is an open road and death is the destination. The most important part is not about reaching the destination because we will all reach that eventually. It is about the things you will see, hear, feel and learn on the road while you journey towards your destiny – death.
The ironic truth is that, we always thought that death is such a sad tragic reality; hence we forgot that life is also a reality… only sweeter.
