Someday We Will Die



There is something very strange and eerie and sad and haunting upon seeing people pass you by with black crosses on their foreheads, knowing that you're marked by the same foreboding symbol like the rest of them.

I apologize to God. Please don't condemn me.

I might be missing the solemnity of Ash Wednesday, but it was never really a comforting thing for me to be reminded of my inescapable death.

I don't know, I'm afraid of death.

I'm afraid that I would just die without warning. Without proper preparations or prepared salutations. I'm afraid that I would die in a way that I wouldn't want to. That I'd die melting away in a fire, or drowning in the vastness of an ocean. That I'd die feeling the speed of a bullet or the sharpness of a blade. That I'd die smashed or beaten or crushed or eaten. That I'd die in the middle of a sweet dream about some tomorrow that I wouldn't be able to wake up to.

I'm afraid of missing out.
I'm afraid I won't be around for amazing technological breakthroughs, or awesome new music, or perhaps, total world peace?

I'm afraid of the things that will be left unsaid. I'm afraid of the people that I would leave behind. I'm afraid of missing the moments I deserve.

I'm afraid that I'll die a second too early, or a second too late.

All my life, I've been living with the fear of death.
I'm afraid that I would lose someone I love to the cruelty of brief time. And I'm afraid that, that too will cause my own death.

Someday, we'll all die.

It's not the most comforting thing in the world.
But somehow, we just have to be reminded of it.

This entry is a day too late.

face it, sucko.

i'm the hero of fools.

all quoted.

"The sad truth is that the truth is sad."

"It's amazing how people are always willing to listen to a man in a funny costume"

"People don't always get what they deserve in this world"

"You can not be a supermodel."

"I'm beginning to think that washing my face is a complete waste of time"

"Most women would rather be Cindy Crawford than Marie Curie"

"The world is a harum scarum place."

"If a guy is witty, charming and artistic, he is probably gay."

"Fate is like a strange, unpopular restaraunt, filled with odd waiters who bring you items you never asked for and don't always like."

"In relationships, it is best to assume nothing."

"Not only am I very intelligent, but I am also very smart."

"Hey, I heard your friend died"

"Yea"

"Well, don't feel bad. He's an old guy, and that's what old guys do. They DIE."

"Certain things they should stay the way they are.You ought to be able to stick them in one of those big glass cases and just leave them alone. I know it's impossible but it's too bad anyway."

"I remember how, a couple of days ago, you and I killed a couple of hours with a computer game. Perhaps the game amused me more than it did you; I desperately needed a little respite from all my thoughts. But each time we 'died' in that game, a new screen immediately came up, and we were off again. How can we know that there isn't a 'new screen' for our souls as well? I don't think there is, I really don't. But the dream of something unlikely has its own special name. We call it hope."

blasto fasto. congratulations, reader, you've clicked the scroll button long enough to have reached the part that nobody dares to reach. now buzz off.
