Death; a scoundrel

This is like a black envelope that swallows a person in whole, no time to wonder even to think, no questions ask, just a sudden life-ending state. Most initial reaction is to fight and try to keep out(away)from this dreaded condition. I've been through a lot of painful experiences before, but this one that I have witnessed had made me come to terms with the REALITY and certain facts of life. There are some things in life that we don't have the power to control or right to claim as ours. We all come to this moment of awareness of our mortality. And from then on, the idea that we are mortal is never far from our minds. We wonder about it, we listen to the various theories of what happens when we die, we may experience morbid flights of fancy, even get fixated on the many horrible ways there are to die. We were even told that what we have, what we own in physical form, we only borrowed. Our life, for once, that is the reason why many are saying that we must make the most out of our lives. Once this is taken from us,we can not buy nor take it back at whatever reason or circumstance we may ask or want.
