Life and Death - The Twain shall Never Meet

Tweet

Life and Death has acquired a new meaning over the past one year with even those at the pink of health becoming vulnerable, victim, of the pandemic. Death is certain after birth but its time is not in our hands unless we choose to jump the gun like very few do. Life is for living and death for dying. We know what life is about, but what about death? None has come back to tell the tale after turning tail here leaving memories in a few that fade away faster as the generations roll by. The mighty us are easy prey to an invisible virus that has too many weapons in its armory. We find many experts and vaccines but the enemy is still alive and kicking. If we know what death is, then we can get over the uncertainty, fear, and even welcome it with open arms. If it is better than life, what the fuss is for? However, our creator keeps us guessing about the outcome, end game. Life and Death – the twain shall never meet is the refrain. Are they like chalk and cheese? Are we in for a thriller that we can never even dream of? Or is it a damp squib? We will forever dream on. My take is to hope for the best and be prepared for the worst. Hoping is for better things to come and to be prepared is to do whatever I can before it is all over here bar the shouting! Hearing is widely thought to be the last sense to go in the dying process. So I will hear the last hurrah from this wonderful life as I sign, take off. Hope I am realistic in my hopes and aspirations. Just food for thought. Life and Death Image from free media site Pexels
