The last page!

i wanted to write something. i looked for a paper before the thoughts slip away from my mind. i found only one, the last page of the canary pad.

Life’s also like a book… with countless pages. You keep turning them until u reach the last one without even realizing. Some people make quick and sudden exit while other get to know about it beforehand… not through premonition but when the doctors tell them. You have only 2 weeks to live.

Suppose if im told that i would die in a week time what’ll i like to do (if i've enough energy)? How would i feel counting minutes and seconds to my own death? This question intrigues me. i hate waiting for anything, i am sure everyone does. So i’d want to transfer to the other world as soon as possible. If my tongue isn’t numb and senses are not suspended i’d recite “ayat-ul-kursi”. Astaghfaar is something i always forget to recite.

No one can explain the pain of death. How does it feel? Maybe it's like someone tears off the soul from the body. Everyone has to experience it as mentioned in Quran. There are books available in the market with gory details about death, after death in grave and the judgment day scenario. In my view it is useless to read them.

So death is all on my mind these days… i feel scared… humble and helpless!

This is my last post about death. i don’t want to write about it for a while.

I like your post. You're right its a mystery. Where do people go? suddenly out into the blue one day..never to return....and we are to miss them...severity.
