GRIEF


For certain is death for the born
And certain is birth for the dead;
Therefore over the inevitable
Thou shouldst not grieve.

- Bhagavad Gita

~Yet having a heart that we have and the way it beats for our loved ones, grief is as inevitable as fate~

I wonder if dwelling about death is one of the purpose in life, cause as long as we are alive - why analyse death ?

we shall have a lot of time once we are no more ;)

@ Ashuman..

You are absolutely right.. I think a lifetime is spend pondering abt death, only in vain..

But dnt you think the very thing that makes life meaningful is death itself .. death and its finality.. If life were to go on and no without an end, then it wud have lost the beauty it has now..

Here I go again.. Pondering abt death in vain..

;)
