And that is as it should be, because death is very likely the single best invention of life.
It’s life’s change agent; it clears out the old to make way for the new.
Right now, the new is you. But someday, not too long from now, you will gradually become the old and be cleared away. Sorry to be so dramatic, but it’s quite true.
Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else ‘s life.
Don’t be trapped by dogma, which is living with the results of other people’s thinking.
Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice, heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become.
Everything else is secondary.

Nothing.
Life is a circle. We’re all running in circles. We start from nothing and end with nothing. But here’s the irony we spend our whole life trying to be something, someone..What’s the difference between the decayed bones of a rich dead or a poor dead? Nothing. What’s the difference between a new born baby of a rich person or a poor person? Nothing. Both are young beautiful naive human beings with a pure heart. Both have no knowledge or experience about the world or it’s happenings. Then why do we discriminate so much? Why do we assume people with money are supposedly the brains of the society? Why do we associate success with money? Why do we treat someone with no money as a worthless piece of filth?
Have we forgotten that most heroes rise from nothing but poverty, pain, sorrow and sufferings. We condemn things we believe in. We put our wants above our needs. We put ourselves above others hoping that someone else will have enough heart to do the opposite. We are nothing but hypocrites. We lie, after all if you don’t step on other people how are you going to be successful? We cheat, we steal. We deprive people of their basic human rights to fulfill our wants. We cry for justice yet we are the ones responsible for all the injustice in the world. We know wrong is being done but we put a hand on our eyes claiming we don’t see anything. We justify the sufferings of innocents.
We are running in a circle of nothingness and soon we will die being nothing.
