面对死亡 Thought on Death


不知是不幸,还是有幸,在医院里见到逝去的人。当活的气息没有的时候,仿佛那躯体也‘轻’了。让我想起了21 GRAMS中的话,‘也许,灵魂的重量就是那轻的21克。’

Life & Body are differentiated by much more than 21 grams. Warmth of the body, functions, exchange, mind, emotions and SOUL are gone at the end of each life. (Indescribable incidents.)

If someone was killed, probably body is the part that stays longest. Therefore, killing of mind, emotions, feelings, faith is the most effective killing. And to keep living life is to keep the SOUL, as bodies have minimum importance at the edge of life and death.

I respect the encounters with death as they're special life lessons to me. They remind me of my performance of life. Am I living the life lively? Or just moving my body actively?

Somehow, death also means PAST. Or I understand it as THE PAST IS DEAD. So,

Cherish today, the living today.

You can live to die or, die to live.
