Life and Death

A very interesting experience that might happen to anyone everyday and everywhere but only few people can realize this... We are living a life that we think it's long enough to grow up, learn, work, succeed, have fun, have family, worship God, do anything we like and finally to die peacefully when we are old surrounded by our beloved ones... But in most of the cases things do not go as we plan, death comes without a notice and without warning, some get signs but the majority either do not get any sign or could not see the signs... Death is there, everywhere around you, the earth we walk on might be the grave of millions, each breath we take means death for millions of microorganisms, our food, water...etc Think of everything we do it's death that gives life and life that gives death.... Death has no color, it's associated in our minds by black, a sad color probably since the two sons of Adam had their fight and the bird that taught the brother how to bury his brother's dead body was a Raven Life is not white, may be it was chosen as the natural opposite of black but still other colors including black are there and we die everyday without noticing this, we murder without intentions and our life means death in a different way, this balance between the living and the dead creates life. One final thing, don't we die every night when we fall asleep, isn't sleep a mild form of death; don't ever be sure that you'll be there next morning!! Sorry for the sad tone
