Is there anyone here, who knows when he will die?

Death is a taboo topic, i don’t know why people don’t like to talk about it and understand it better, you know it has a great impact on the way we live our lives.

I don’t know why this exact topic came into my mind, but recently i had been listening to the lectures on death and also watched a movie named guitar in which the main character, suddenly knows that she got 1 to 2 months left in her life. Though the director was creative, but it was his imagination that how such a person would behave.

But i thought how would i behave if i listen such a news, this knowledge will give me an opportunity to fix my life and understand death better. If you understand death better you understand the life itself, because death is nothing but the absence of it.

Actually the way you questioned was NOT intelligent

okay now I understand why you questioned… it’s because you are attending lectures on it.

I think you wanted to just find out on what people think about death, and NOT about “how” they will die.

I had taken a course on “Death and After Life”, and it had really opened up a whole new view point for me on death.

Yes it’s true it’s a taboo. It’s a taboo to talk about death ONLY because we fear of losing a loved one.

However, I strongly believe that death should be talked about, because everyone dies one day. Talking about death helps overcome “some” issues that we fear.

I like it how other cultures “celebrate” the lives of the dead.

Right now, a political figure, Ted Kennedy died. No one is talking of demise but they are talking of “celebration” of his life.

I feel comfort in that.
