Our greatest prejudice is against death. It spans age, gender and race. We spend immeasurable amounts of energy fighting an event that will eventually triumph. Though it is noble not to give in easily, the most alive people I’ve ever met are those who embrace their death. They love, laugh and live more fully.

I have learned to not fear the inevitable. It is a well practiced waste of time.
We worry so much on things that can never change, that in the end we have burdened ourselves useless.
We are the lead cause of our
irritibility
anxiousity
depression
nervousness
and altogether our general displeasure with ourselves and our enviroment.
So I challenge you to put aside what you can not change. Embrace it and do not let thoughts of it consume you. Be at peace with yourself and in that discover bliss.
No, this is not applause for predestination. There are some things that are designed to happen no matter who you are, your occupation, your race, or your philosophy. They are written in nature and have been so since creation. If you know you can't change them why concern yourself with them? Why become your own limited boundary?
The challenge stands.
The results are gold
