Are You Afraid Of Death?

Do you know what will happen in the year 2012?

They say that apocalypse will occur on the precise date of 21st December 2012.

That gives us about 4 years plus to live our life to the fullest if the prediction was accurate.

Not many will be able to make out of their feelings to know the precise date of your death.
But if this knowledge were to be true,
What would you do? How would you feel?

First thing that came to me was a sense of terror and anxiety.

But it lasted not more than 10 seconds.

As though the fear overcame by itself without me doing anything.

Next, I felt nothing, well, close to nothing.

I thought what a waste it would be for me to strive so hard and had live through all that happened for the past 17 years.
I wonder how would I really feel when the day really came.
The day i die.

Would I be afraid?
I don't know.
All I know for now is, before I die, I want definite answers for everything.
But it would never come, because there is no definite answer to everything.
All individuals have their own beliefs and principles.
No one would stand united to an answer because there are just too many.

If this bleak near future has come to a plausibility,
I wouldn't know what I will do.
So far,
I'm content to what I have and what I have been through,
both materialistically and emotionally.
Regrets had led to self-realisation and awareness.
Vindications led to a content agreement,
Exculpations led to escapism,
after all,
We are only but humans.

The only thing i'm sure of,
if everyone were to die on the same day,
i want to die in the arms of my loved ones.

It is times like these where you long for an assuring pat or voice.

I still want to go home.


Are you ready to die?

Yea man.
So true.
When the apocalypse does come, and we all go to hell, i can finally tell all the christian fanatics who think we have reserved tickets to heaven, ''I TOLD YOU SO..''
