I hope this topic isn't too depressing. I just wanted to express what I've been thinking about lately.

I must say the death of MJ really messed up my whole summer. It hit me that very second when they announced he was dead, that death is THAT serious. I mean I always knew death wasn't a joke but it came off as one of those things that you think will miraculously pass you by. But nope. No one's leaving this world alive and that scares me. Any one can die. Good people and Bad people. We come on this earth to live a life that was already predestined for us. This very moment is something that has already been written thousands of years ago for me to do. I hate the fact that we all become so attached to living that we are afraid to die. Why can't the word death be a happy feeling instead of a gloomy one. For some maybe it is. Perhaps it's the fact that we don't know when it's going to happen. So it's like walking on pins and needles and knowing that in any minute our feet will get cut. Also, it's the fact that we all go one by one rather than together. One of our best friend's can go years before we do. Life is crazy and sometimes it's hard to enjoy it when you think about the bittersweet fact that we must die. But then there's the fact that once we die, we live in peace and happiness -that is if we do what's right here on earth. But that's a whole 'nother conversation! I guess we should just live each second as if it is our last. Therefore, we need to live right because though life is long, the decision of where we go to spend our after life is decided quickly.
