Live On

If you knew you are going to die soon and you had only one call to make, who would it be to?

I hope some one does come up in your mind by reading the above sentence. Read on...

I have lost people very close to me. Which really made me think, why do good people die so early? Then I came to know why it is so famously said:

"Heroes die young!"

All those people which are no more with me were, are and always will be my heroes. They always will be part of my life in one way or the other. They have left lasting impressions of their wonderful personality on me.

In the end all we have are the fond memories of our loved ones.

I always say that life is nothing but the very moment we are living in. We must no matter what make the best of these collection of moments.

I will always give preference to my parent's hug over a million dollar cheque.

Your parents, children, siblings and other relatives never remember you for the money you made but for the quality time you spent with them. They never remember you for the luxuries you gave to them but for the hearty love you bestowed upon them.

One cannot stop the process of dying but one can cherish the few years one has in his life by living every day as his last day.

I vividly remember once my teacher quoted someone's quotation, which went like this:

"You have the opportunity to live life in three ways...

1) The life you are living right now
2) The life you will live after death
3) The life you live through the memories of the people after you die!

You have lived fully only if you are able to live in the memories of people after you have long gone."

That is just an epic way to tell how should one spend his time in this world and seconds what I have said earlier.

If you knew you are going to die and you had only one call to make, who would it be to?

What are you waiting for? :)
