The Life of Kookie

Today is yet another regular day that passes by in a nick of time. People live their daily lives as if it is a given thing; however, life shouldn't be something that's considered a norm. Life can be over in a split second. Here, I can define two terms in the simplest of the simplest way. Life: a gift that's been given for a purpose. Death: a natural process that encompasses people; can defeat anything. Life is like a haiku. It has so many different paths-twists and turns-that lead to so many different directions. Like a haiku, life is a huge and important part of a person, however, it has complexities-or not even make any sense.

More like the thought of death itself consumes people entirely. Sometimes it feels as if I'm "marvelous"(3) yet "pathetic"(3). Sometimes it feels as if everyone in this world is against me. Life gives people mixed-up feelings all the time. Life, is in a way, confusion in a different form. All the rhetoric used in Woolf's piece encompasses the central theme of how death always wins the battle. When humans struggle against the power of death-not wanting to die...clinging to their last hopes of staying on this world-they don't have a chance of winning, for death always wins. Honestly, life and death can't even be summed up in one blog post like this. 

Life is such a big part of a human being yet death comes over people in an instant

I personally think that the expression "hot for humility" explains how ridiculous people are in this world. People can be big-time "antagonists"(5), be "indifferent"(5), or even "impersonal"(5). Gandhi once said "live as if you would die tomorrow". This should be taken into consideration. It's not just another philosophical, fancy, nonsensical saying. Literally, death can come for you anytime. Hereafter, people need to know that suffering and death is an essential part of life as death nears and that life is truly a blessing given to people.
