Life lessons learnt.

I'm at the doctors, and all I see are sick people, sitting, waiting for their turn to see the doctor. Next to me, is an old man. Almost the end of his life, I can tell. So weak and frail, trying his best, using any last bit of energy and life he has left inside of him and yet, is full of hope. Instead of just waiting to die, he's at the doctor doing his monthly check-up. Inspiring isn't it? If I were him, I would be at home waiting for death, filled with the utmost grief that my life on this earth is coming to an end. Sometimes you wonder whether there would be an elixir, an elixir that can make a person live longer or even live forever, but what would this world be if we kept reproducing and not die. There will be no lessons learnt or stories to tell. Life would be so boring, life would have no meaning. Yet, you think about not seeing anyone you love ever die, or ever disappearing and that makes it all the better.
