People are born. People live. People see, hear, smell, touch, and taste. People learn, forget, enjoy, love and hate. People grow, change, and age. And then, people die. People die young, people die old. People die all the time, for all kinds of reasons. Excuses, things. People die for being themselves, people die for following their beliefs. People die for disagreeing, and people die for being alive. Death is inevitable, and cannot be prevented. People die, animals die, trees die, rocks die, seas die, worlds die, and even stars die. Feelings die, ideals die, trends die, nations die. In the end, the only thing that is definite is death itself. People live life just to die, yet they simmer in their worries and regrets and wallow in despair. Why go on living, if you don't even enjoy life? For that matter, why live at all, if you are just going to die one day? What is the point in life, the point in existing at all? Perhaps it is something not fully comprehensible by the asinine minds of human beings. But one thing is for certain, and that is this: life and death are eternal, and no matter what, we as human beings need to accept this, and get over ourselves. We need to forget the worries and regrets, and live in the moment, enjoying life to it's fullest, always learning, always enjoying, and strive to make it count. Because before you know it, you are on your deathbed thinking about all of the things you have done, all of the things you have not done, regrets, pastimes, unfulfilled wishes. And then you die. Too late, time's up, see you next time, no if's, and's, or but's. Don't take life for granted, no matter how bad or good parts of it may be, life is an illusion that will slip through your fingers if you are not careful.
