WHEN LIFE TAKES...

When Life takes...
For what sake?
All is at stake
And All in awe, never getting beyond wonder, ponder and amazement.

Sudden death of one scares us all.
And makes the heart to ponder.

But more than meets the eye;
Is the birth of the beautiful, great.
And most often overlooked, neglected, flawed, overshadowed by grief for the loss of the living.

The beautiful, great ones are yet to be born.
Are being born,
Are yet to be born,
And would be born again and again.
From time immemorial till time eternal.

Life gives as if it will never take.
And plunders as if it will never replenish.
Let's mourn for the dead,
The fallen Hero(ine).
But Let's not forget to carry on with the Living.
To this end, Jesus Christ would put it: "Let the dead bury their dead."
And so, carry on with the Living ever present.

Life is a cycle,
Of virtue,
Of vice.
And man is mortal.
And mortality is finite.
And all that is finite is ending.
And ALL (that's) ENDING is
(DEATH) -- Mortal(ity).

For we live beautifully as if we will never pass away.
And pass on as if we never made ourselves look wonderful and beautiful.

We Live as if we will never die.
And die as if we never lived.
For mortality is every ending.
And every ending is mortal.

So, Let's love, embrace our mortality while it lasts with us,
Till we conquer our mortality.
