Someone once asked me: How would you like to leave this world?? Sudden End or a slow end with lots of time to say goodbye.
My answer was obviously - "Sudden End"... No Pain... I won't even realise that I am gone.
Who wants to go the slow painful way... never knowing which breath is the last one.
Then, one day, I saw the end... well almost. And the only thing on my mind in that second was "Sh**... I don't even get a chance to say goodbye to my loved ones. Guess I would take the slow painful way any day. Atleast I will get to say a goodbye.
Today I'm asking myself the same question once again...
I once lost a loved one whom I didn't get a chance to say goodbye... I cursed that fellow sitting up there. Complaining that this was unfair... wrong... to just snatch away without warning.
Today... I see another loved one... losing life one part at a time. I am just a spectator. I can't even say a goodbye because that person doesn't recognise me anymore... doesn't recognise anybody for that matter. The physical body is giving up day after day.
What is the point of such goodbyes when the goodbye is not communicated.
I don't know if I will find an answer to this question in this life... I'm just a lost kid.
what I like about this post is that, there is a lot more to every sentence than just the literal meaning!Lot of pain, lot of inquisitiveness about the whole cycle of life and death.
ReplyDeleteWell, there is surely a logic to everything. Its just that we dont understand it at times or take our own sweet time to really understand what the person sitting above wants to indicate.
psst..kindly go through your punctuations:P
