Since the moment you were born,
every breath, every step.
It brings you closer to death.
Why do we celebrate birthdays?
"Congratulations on not dying. Glad you made it this far, good luck."
Death is inevitable.
Everyone will die.
You can't stop it.
But don't be afraid.
Don't look forward to it.
It's not about being scared of when.
It's being able to focus on now.
It's about observing and taking in the things around you.
It is not about death.
It is about life.
It's about having the courage to live.
For only those with courage are able to see the beauty within the inevitable fate.
And within the way of life itself.
So my reader, have the courage not to die,
but to live
