I wanted to express some thoughts I´ve been having this year and it´s mostly about death. This year a very close relative has been reached by death and it sure was quite sad... Death has been a subject that, I dont know must of you but I´ve been thinking on it quite a long time. I´ve read many articles mostly buddist and they sure affirm you that the most important moment in your life is your death! And it is mostly because those last moments will determine the way or the circumstances you´ll re-born... But I sure dont want to make this text sad, but I want to reflect on how that moment may come and how should I confront it!
I think must of us dont fear death "per se" We think we dont fear it, and we are Ok accepting someday it´s going to happen but I think the scariest thing is to actually confront a close relative or friend´s death..
I´have also heard a phrase saying "When you are born, everybody is smiling and you are crying, but when you are dead, everybody is crying and you shall be smiling"....
The thing with this phrase that bothers me, is the part of "everybody is crying" and I am a great believer that funerals and death events shouldnt be a sad thing!!--- It should be a great event celebrating the liberation of the soul and the acomplishments of this person through life...
I maybe saying non-sense, but it is in fact that being in a funeral it does makes me sad and maybe also because most people are transmitting this feeling which affects anyone being all vulnerable to this sensation... I sure want to see all my friends and relatives smiling and laughing at my funeral and clapping!! I sure want them to clap and clap and laugh and laugh and be greatful of being able to spend some time with me... eventhough most of them wont know that we´ll meet again and that it is all a big circle!!!
I still dont know how am I going to die(haha) and I sure dont want to know..yet! but I sure want to be peaceful and I want to be smiling!--
