the fear of death...

the ego fears everything, especially death..

this is why we fear everything..

what is rarely spoken or thought of by the ego in it's constant ambition for continuence of life is that the most painful death is old age..

disease, blindness, deafness, inability to walk,

the slow ticks of the clock which brings physical pain..

and yet, in our younger years, we fear death most of all..

as it is often spoken in jest;

" Everyone wants to go to Heaven, but no one wants to die"..

I believe that it is time that we laugh in the face of death and ego..

We do not really die..

you already knew that, but death still haunts you..

What is the answer?..

Live each day as though, it is your last..

you will never feel more alive...
