Living and dying
August 11, 2006 by elsaloekito
Is it death, or dying, that fears you?
I think I am not afraid of both..
It is not death, nor dying, that I fear,
rather, it is the things in living that I should have done.
It is not power, nor prestige, nor appraisals that I should look up to,
but a self-giving life for serving humanity.
This may be true: a completely peaceful world can never exist unless humanity no longer exists.
We all try to serve our own definitions of humanity,
sadly, for many, compromising non-humane actions has become a favourite option.
So, i ask my self again, is my live worth-sacrificing for the sake of humanity? What "humanity"?
Ah yes, the endless question of humanity.
