Breathe in, Breathe out
Ignore the world, be with yourself, stay calm,
"Memento Mori" I've been always a fan of this Latin phrase, It means to remember your mortality, a constant reminder for myself that someday I and you shall die.
Every person that we will ever come to know will someday die.
When something bad happens to me, I repeatedly say Memento Mori, Memento Mori, I'am saying it just like how I say my prayers. It boosts me up in a way that whatever I am struggling now will not matter in the future. And will not matter, especially when I am 6 feet below the ground.
Same goes, if something good happens to me, I still repeatedly say it, Memento Mori, Memento Mori, Because it keeps me on the ground, to remain humble. That whatever I've achieved or whatever I will come to achieve will soon not matter, still I can't escape death. I can't bribe death with trophies and awards.
Do not get me wrong, I have not come into this earth just to live while thinking about death. I do not have an ironic life.
Then why do you always think of death?, you may ask. Why don't you just forget it for now and just think about it when your old and dying.
Well, my friends, "Death like love comes all of a sudden on the time we least expect it." and that's what makes it scary.
They say they are 3 ways to immortality,
1st is to plant a tree. The tree will live a hundred and hundred of years more even after your death, This will be a reminder for people you know and will ever come to know that this tree is planted by you and you will be forever in their hearts and mind.
2nd build a family, have an offspring, let you offspring have an offspring, let your descendant be as countless as the stars in the heavens.
3rd it to write a book, It can be a story, a guide to anything, uplifting words maybe, or even poetry.
I always wanted the third one, but I am not sure if I am really capable, I love to write, yes, but I'm not sure if writing really fits to me.
Different poems for different people and none of them reach in time.
Some choose another man wile some took their lives. I'm starting to think that my writings are unimportant..
If you think I am suicidal, I am not, I am not suicidal, I am not harming myself, I am safe.
I am just a normal man living a bitter life to reminisce a sweet death.
