it’s finished, I have to stop here

What do we hold on to? It's ok to die.
Let me first mention the reason for writing on this subject. A friend of mom, who was 60 yrs old, died last week and also, today, while reading a Premchand's novel, my mom came across an impressive piece of writing which she shared with us. This triggered me off to write...
One of the characters who is on his deathbed, consoles a relative, by telling her that there's not much difference between earth and heaven. He assures her that he'll continue to waste his time in heaven as well, by reading newspaper all day long.
"Don't take life seriously, you're gonna end up dead". The qouted text inspires me to a level that I throw away my books and doze off.
I love to move on. Parting away from close ones hardly hurts me because I'm always up for some new adventure.
But then I never took death as an adventure!
So, my conclusion is that dying is not as difficult as human portrays it.
People do die physically but remain in the hearts of those who loved them and also are never forgotten by those who hated them.
So take a chill pill, dying is not a big deal. The world would continue without you.
