we are all going to die...

We are all going to die.
there are no two ways about that.
so where does that leave us?????

follow your instincts,
is my best advice.
but many choose a different path...
and many egos choose a different path.

you are born,
you enjoy the innocence of youth,
and then...
you come to realize that everyone dies,
that everyone ends...
and all, at best(?), they leave,
is their legacy...

i read once that 'writers never die'
and maybe thats true,
for spirit can be continued in verse,
and as the scientists say,
energy is always conserved,
converted from one form to another...
but then what of a brilliant work by Burroughs,
which affects hundreds,
maybe thousands?

words, life, energy put into words,
of a long dead man,
magnified,
never dimishined in core root...

that shits in the face of the scientists.

from the christians,
the hindus,
the buddhists,
the muslims...
my only conclusion,
is...
worry about ther afterlife,
only when we enter that unknown to ALL who still live realm.
until then,
persist free and wild,
chase happiness,
for yourself and those closest to you,
for bringing joy onto your loved ones
brings joy onto you...

Nice, man. I liked the last part..Although the part about the energy I have a diff view on. I think when we die, it's only our body that dies, the rest of our energy goes back into the universe and everything that is (imagine it from 9.00 into this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_z2O289Jemo ], so you never really die, only your body dies, and even if you haven't left a 'legacy', anyone who could remember you will die anyway too.

Heavy Dan, I believe people live on in memory,but only in the minds of those who think of them.

And it would be awesome if there was some sort of afterlife, but I am skeptic towards it.

Barring any underlying theme. Don't say that.

I second that, ctfc...not out of some philanthopist idealism, but because, i value Abby as a Woman, and her body appears as delightful as the mind which sits within it...

[AbbyRoad]

buts its so much work keeping a body alive and functioning, not to mention the money spent on food and other essentials

[weedguru_animal]

like me, abby...you seem to be lacking inspiration and bliss. which doesn't help in any way...but does suggest some solidarity of suffering.
