Death is frighting because it is seen as an ending 

It is seen as an ending to something beautiful, life,

It happens in an instance, which makes it even more terrifying 

It makes it easy for us to see how fleeting everything is

But birth, birth is a miracle, because it is a beginning

And beginnings are always fun,

Exciting,

Playful,

And something to look forward to, for awhile,

But what if for a moment we stopped.

Now birth becomes an ending,

Frighting and mysterious,

And death, a beginning,

one we all anxiously await.

Did you think about the journey?

How it would completely change?

We simply flipped two words, for a moment,

Gave them different meanings, for a moment,

And for that moment, everything changed.

Now lets take another moment

And for that moment, what if we think of no ending,

And no beginning,

As if those words never existed,

As if there never was birth or death,

This is so timely for me Xhiljola! Absolutely beautiful. Solidifies the perception of oneness and duality. Death only affects those who are left behind. It is a birthing of a new existence for the soul that passes through this reality and into the next.

Keep writing! You bear such emotion with your words.
