On close encounter with Death!

What have I learnt on my close encounter with Death! That nothing does matter in the face of death. When alive we are invincible and when closer to death we are vincible. Ego, love, power, friends, family and anything we deem eternal struggle in the face of death. When I now realize that men and life is so fragile. I now find nothing reliable to hold on to. Surprisingly, all seems so real when we are busy living. But all gets so unreal in the face of death. Whom to mourn for, or do I yearn for. Sorry to say, but the family and friends I have now, matters nothing in the face of death. This body that I foolishly counted upon; now I realize is so unreliable and fragile. Not sure what can I hold on to, that stands for strength. Then why am I living and for what purpose. Life may no longer matter to me, but does for those who take it real. So when we find no purpose to live our own life. Let's live it for others for whom it matters all. Now I realize how important solitude it. None can ...

What is the purpose of life?

Is there any or will I ever know the purpose of life Known that it's wealth and power;  but these are so relative And see the best of all still feeling hollow upon accomplishing it all. Some say knowledge is a good pursuit, but these is so hollowness in all. Now I sometimes feel is love something worthy to live for. But even that fades. How often I loved and how often it failed. How to live with principles and philosophies. They too aren't enough; even the best of the known logic. Cannot convince the whole of the population. But we all live, die and few things happen in between irrespectively

Oh Death!

I forgot that you ever existed till you arrived uninvited. Where has all my ego and motivation gone in the face of death. You showed how fragile we as a body are. Am I just this body that will be faded in oblivion!   You have the reputation of being merciless; sparing none. Do not even spare a mother feeding her baby. Nor will I attempt to escape from you since now do I realize the helplessness of humanity. Alas, we are so vincible and limited in our effort!   Finally I see the ineffectiveness of faith and human accomplishment. We are all so helpless in the face of death. Neither God, nor demon ever been spared by you. Who am I; to even try to hold on to this life!   My elixir would be when I am long gone. Desirelessness for the temporary world that isn’t real. And acceptance of the truth; that we know as death. Life goes on and nothing even matters after I’m gone.   I warmly welcome you Death since I see no purpose in this lif...
