Aarrrggg was the sound I gave seeing the topic for the first edition, lol.
Actually, we tend to waste some precious time because we are clueless of some fact about our lives and even when we know that death is inevitable and could come at any point in life, we still make some decisions that may either cause our existence to be referred as little or no impact when we are no more there.
Death is inevitable but who particularly knows when it will come knocking? No one and this actually made me think in a funny way after thinking about this prompt where it ask me what I'll do with this device that can tell when a person will die and then my entrepreneur mind struck the fact that I could just get this death-time casting device, get an office and check for people at a price that will be affordable based on their demographics and I'm sure I'll have a long queue. So funny, lol.
It struck me again in a way that if truly this device was in place, it's possible I could have known that I will be losing some special people at some early stage of my life and I would have just used all I have to care for them while they are still living before their time of death arrives.
But then, knowing all these things are actually like unnecessary pressures and trauma because in the case of someone who has always wished for a long life and this device ends up telling him/her they will be dieing in the next 5years, there's no certainty that they will be after the enjoyment they can enjoy for those remaining years but they would rather wallow in sadness and might even die before their actual time.
So actually, I'm clueless or confused right now if I'll be buying the device or not cos some things are better left unknown so that we won't end up drawing our ends faster than it should have been.
God who made the time of birth and death a mystery knows it's not something we can have control over so I'd rather let it be.
Because at the end of it all, a saying from my tribe that I learned from my mum ends it all which is:
Mio le sare motor kolu keke
Meaning "I can't run from a harm to another." I can't go from frying pan to fire because of my curiosity.
I'll be dropping my 🖊️ here on the Scifi Multiverse Prompt
Thanks for reading through 🤗
