Don't be afraid your life will end; be afraid that it will never begin.

I read this quote online and it really made me happy. Whoever came up with this quote should be given a trophy. I also believe in the same thing. I mean many times some us worry ourselves for nothing. We are all going to die someday and we cannot prevent this from happening, thus many of us get all worked about how we are going to die. Some even go to psychics to find out how they are going to die.
I believe while we are still alive we should make very single minutes counts and thus let tomorrow worry about itself. Death is just something is there and no one can eliminate it.

It's true, if we can't enjoy what we have and be happy that we're alive and we can do so many things i don't know what else can open our eyes.
This quote is very similar with "Don't wait for things to happen. Make it happen" or "Stop thinking. Start living" It's in our hands, we can have the life we want if we do something to make our dreams come true.
As many others i think life is a journey, a great aventure.I'm not thinking very much when i'll die, how it will be, if i'll have regrets.We should take every day as a new chance to change the things we don't like in our life.

Yeah I agree with you. That is a great quote. I love to read quotes. We really shouldn't let fear of our life ending overtake us. Sometimes negative thoughts like that can be crippling. It is best that we strive to live our life and do the things we want to. That we reach our goals and our proud of all that we have accomplished. We will be happy and proud of ourselves to know that our life is good.

Well it's for sure that from the moment your life starts (your birth) it's the countdown to the moment you will die. Although we all know that most of us are not live life the fullest. Kind of sad, mostly because to many of us life is a struggle to survive, society, laws etc are not willing to give us the freedom to live,laugh, do what we like to enjoy. Your quote makes partly sense... it might be scaring as well but only if you don't see the moment as you were born as the moment your life did begin. Which is according to me.

There is another qoute I read recently, by Benjamin Franklin, that say "Some people die at 25, but aren't buried until 75". We all die, but it's more important to take care that we don't just survive the whole life, but actually live, experience, feel. Not only set on our automatic pilot and going on without thinking too much at what's happening.
