We can't really say that we have no idea what it is like to die.
We practice it everyday when we fall asleep.

... when you are growing, I wouldn't call that dying, would you? Only when you stop growing, only then do you start to die.... (physically).Originally posted by YuutoFlow:Frm TV Show i hear before ... like 1 step into the world is 1 step closer to death ... -

... that's only true if you do not differentiate "living" like you are only dead or alive and there is no 'quality' of life, different times of life.Originally posted by mr_sotong:thats the words that use to comfort optimist..
but the truth is, we r closer to death every seconds..
I would say that life does not start with your birth ... -

Beauty is everywhere. From the flowers, to the clouds in the skies, to the tiniest cracks in walls. Ever since I took up photography I begun to see the world and things around me differently.
Luis Barragan once said " Human life deprived of beauty is not worthy of being called so" at his acceptance speech of the 1980 Pritzker Prize for architecture.

..isn't it a good thought on the first day of the new year to know that there is no need to fear death because we practice dying everyday? -
lols.. nice point then.. it seems to me your topics are created with an intent to influence.. of course, you would probably term it as "educate".. *shrugs* To each his own.. you have a great desire to find the meaning to life and that is applaudable..Originally posted by AndrewPKYap:The point I am trying to make is that we all practice death and dying everyday....
... and I do not know if I am going to die soon... you do?
Sometimes, a failure is attributed to a vicious cycle of self influencing thoughts.. A thought that influences another thought which eventually narrows down the view.. -
How to practise sleeping/dying peacefully every night when we are living in a pressure cooker society? That's why the transition is troublesome.Originally posted by AndrewPKYap:... with so much practice, the transition should be a breeze, no? -

"
And now, the end is near;
And so I face the final curtain.
My friend, Ill say it clear,
Ill state my case, of which Im certain.
Ive lived a life thats full.
Ive traveled each and evry highway;
And more, much more than this,
I did it my way.
Regrets, Ive had a few;
But then again, too few to mention.
I did what I had to do
And saw it through without exemption.
I planned each charted course;
Each careful step along the byway,
But more, much more than this,
I did it my way.
Yes, there were times, Im sure you knew
When I bit off more than I could chew.
But through it all, when there was doubt,
I ate it up and spit it out.
I faced it all and I stood tall;
And did it my way.
Ive loved, Ive laughed and cried.
Ive had my fill; my share of losing.
And now, as tears subside,
I find it all so amusing.
To think I did all that;
And may I say - not in a shy way,
No, oh no not me,
I did it my way.
For what is a man, what has he got?
If not himself, then he has naught.
To say the things he truly feels;
And not the words of one who kneels.
The record shows I took the blows -
And did it my way!
"
Regrets, Ive had a few;
But then again, too few to mention.
I did what I had to do
And saw it through without exemption.
Live, laugh, play without regrets. Living a simple life of happiness and joy is the best life one can live.
