dying everyday

dear beings of earth and elsewhere,

one of the truths that i have realized is that life is about dying everyday and getting born the next day. Though simple it may sound it is the most difficult of things to do- but without that our search seems improbable. Like cholestrol deposits around the heart-atleast i seem to have deposited layers of survival on my life-trying to balance things which doesnot allow me to live.its not that i am scared of life but i guess i have made it scary-only purity can make life beautiful and for that i need to cleanse the layers....as our cells die and new are created i wonder why we are trapped in memories.....is it really that hard to die everyday?

KS - I read this somewhere
'Death is more universal that life. Everyone Dies, but not everyone Lives.'

Agree with you, that we shouldn’t get lost either in our past or the uncertainties of the future, because that’s when we are losing the essence of ‘TODAY’ i.e. that’s when the layers pile up.

But ‘dying everyday’? Common where is the eternally positive KS that we all know? :)

I would say , it would be great if we can attempt to merely live for the day, viewing tomorrow as a fresh beginning :) In the end we wouldn’t value ‘pleasure’ if we hadn’t experienced ‘pain’ right ?

i like the line "i've deposited layers of survival...... which i need to cleanse"

the pursiut of survival is not as glorified as they say in the urban jungle.
i've been dogged by the fear if i will be able to survive on my own or not.
i suppose it was the mistaken glory of survival that made me feel so.
ok so....nice to hear that from you
