“You cry, because you wanted to spend so much more time with that person and do so much more stuff which circumstances wouldn’t have allowed when the person was alive. You cry, because the person's precious to you. Because you cant see the person any more, spend time with that person, get comfort from the person, give the person comfort. Laugh with the person anymore and all those stuff.”

This is what my junior (emo kid Praveena) replied regarding my post. You can read it in the tags itself.

I used to say that ‘don’t expect anything in life’. Now I would say ‘the only thing you should expect in life is death, whether your own or others”. Quite true.

So if you know that someday or another that the person you love is going to go, shouldn’t you just make use of the day that he/she is with you to shower him/her with love? If you really wanted to spend time with that person and do more stuff, wouldn’t you take the extra effort to do it, even if circumstances forbid you from doing so?

When a person is gone, you can’t spend time with them anymore right? So why not use the time that they are alive to enjoy their presence? So you know that you have enough memories to last for your lifetime. But shouldn’t you be prepared to actually lose that precious someone when death is a natural phenomenon. Just that you don’t know when and to who it happens!

Hmmm… Honestly, Prav, your tags did make sense. At the same time, they don’t. I’m a Gemini – have to be fickle minded what!  ¶ 10:49 PM
