Hey you, and yes I am talking to you, the person that is reading this or about to read this. You will surely die one day, it is only a matter of time and what you might face when you die. In some way, I have been thinking or wondering what happens when a person kicks the bucket and gives up the ghost. Where would they even go to or land their ass? Is there some haven locked up somewhere as I have heard in some descriptions? Factually speaking. I don't even know which to believe in anymore, others say it is just empty endless oblivion. Boom, you are gone and nobody knows you anymore. What happens I can say nobody knows yet. Everybody is only giving their speculation on what it would be like. And yet I still wander in the dark about what it would look like.
That huge uncertainty about death still loops in the air whenever I think about it or what it would look like when the time comes. I even wonder within my soul that it could be a form of payment for a life well lived. The person whom death takes has nothing left to do on earth, it can make you sad and depressed whenever you think about the truth that someday someone you love, care for, and admire so much, could leave at anymore. Leaving you all alone in a world big and filled with so many strangers that will never get to know the real you. The saddening option is when you have to deal with a type of death option that even after all your efforts to keep the person alive, they still left and didn't say goodbye. The more I think about it, I can guess that I have cracked the code for what makes death a mystery, to date.
It probably revolves around the idea that we still fail when it comes to accepting that even if we leave today, we will only be remembered for the memories shared with people. We can only be seen if our light shines and our actions were impactful in the lives of people around us.
When it comes to death or the passing of a loved one, we get to try our best in remembering the legacy they left behind, the good they made us feel, and the happiness they made us feel. Like the song Love Someone by Lukas Graham, he said and I quote
when you love someone, you become scared of letting them go or losing them.
A fear that bites us up as human is the fear of loss. It can be a thorn within our flesh and I confess to it too. I am still terrified by the idea that someday the person whom I care for might leave through circumstances beyond my control. But yet, I will still love that person no matter what.
I'm putting it out there, never stop loving or feeling because of the fear of loss, rather love hard even if the person might live. Love the mindset that people make you happy. Love with the understanding that no matter what, I will still remember them for who they were and the way they made me feel.
For all those who have lost a loved one, it's well and try to remember the good moments and memories, for that's all we have left of them.
