Suddenly I have been having this fear of dying. Fear of bad health. Fear of others falling into a bad state of mind. I think its normal to have this anxiety, these worries from time to time especially after some of my own health trials. It's hard, because sometimes the fear makes me afraid to sleep. As if I'll never wake up again. But then I remembered, we all go to sleep with this notion we will wake up in the morning (unless very ill, and expecting death). However, I don't think we should have this expectation. Because, death can happen at any moment, it can knock at anyone's door. So, instead, when we awake from our slumber, we should take the time to appreciate the ability to wake. The ability to wake up and have another day in this life. Someone dies every minute. So we should live every minute. Live to the fullest. Live like we wouldn't wake the next day. Find peace in the day to day. Make choices that we are content with. Though we all have those few choices in which we will take to our grave. Sometimes I forget how beautiful life is. Fear of dying is overbearing but if I can find peace with what I've done so far, who I am, the impacts I have made, the fear will become less and less. You have to choose life, to combat the fear of death. Fear can be battled. Worries can settle. Happiness can be gained. Love can be shared. Life can be lived.
