I Realise That Life Is Short

When I was 8 my mom got hurt at work. She fell off a ladder and dislocated two disks in her back and neck. She had the one in her neck removed and they knicked a nerve, giving her "spazms", that would make her heart almost stop...

In the past few years I have seen much too much death. I saw several people die during my time as a soldier, and even when they were enemies...I never grew accustomed to the waste of human life. Then I lost my parents, which was a...

My mom is very sick............she has Alzheimer's disease. I see her everyday. She doesnt know who I am anymore. My heart is broken. I cry everyday. She still is very beautiful....how I do miss her :(

Old age watches us, roaring like a tigress. Disease, like enemies, is striking us often. Life is flowing out like water from a broken jar. Curious still how men do evil deeds in this world!

The sun by his coming and going every...

Time passes us by and before we know it we are old. It's interesting how sometimes we feel we have forever. That's because during certain periods of our lives things seem to change gradually, so we don't even realize that change is...

Twice in my life I have come very close to death. The first time, (I was 15 and it was at my own hand) was a life changing experience but I was still suffering from superman syndrome (the subconscious belief/feeling that you will never...

I can't believe I'm going to be 27 years old this year

The last breadth is the toughest one to take. And I am moving towards it.. Faster than i thought.

It is also an opportunity. To remember your contribution to the society. Not everyone can be a Rushdie. But maybe i will reach someone..

I've been through my share of highs and lows. Some of the lows damn near killed me, and yet I continue to survive. To many tales to tell at once, but I've learned a different way of thinking that has suited me well. There IS a...

They are just nature... Can't be helped. Why dont people realise that? It is tough to be nice always.. Why can't people just accept the other side as well as they accept my good things... Am i just supposed to be white.. No grey shade...

I may not be concerned about how long I am here but admittedly,I don't like going through it,feeling,alone and yes,unaccepted. Ah,this is life,for some. I don't feel sorry for myself, since I am well aware,many others have it much worse...

You know ive been depressed since i was fourteen.Ive tried suicide many times and i still think about death.But two different incidents have made me look a little bit different at my life. The first was a suicide attempt.I took about...

I appreciate people more now- then when I was younger. I had my share of deaths, within the family and friends. Life is a very short journey, compared to the vast universe. Don't go through your whole life- wishing that you did...

I've heard many adages regarding life. Right now, in the wake of my cousin's funeral, is the one regarding a person's viewpoint about a half-filled vessel; whether it is half-full or half-empty. For me it doesn't matter. What matters is...

we're all here for a relatively short time and then,move on,to wherever or in whatever form,no-one KNOWS. All just a matter of CHANGE. All of us,in and of,the Universe. In all honesty,I don't worry about it,the time. It passes.

we're all here for a relatively short time and then,move on,to wherever or in whatever form,no-one KNOWS. All just a matter of change and not dying,except in physical form.Considering we are all in and a part of this Universe,the key is...
