Though birth is controllable,
Can death be really controlled?
Even though breath is uncountable,
Can the lungs work endlessly?


Yes or no I care not;
For I know for certain,
Someday, somehow, every living being will lose their last breath
Irrespective of age or status.


However, if truly we have only one life to live,
What did you think will happen after you lose that one last breath?
I don’t want to die! I don’t want to die!!
Yet no one escapes death.


Imagine death catches up with you today,
How best did you think you will lose that last breath of yours?
Although your action tells a lot about how well the last breath vanishes
But your true value reviews itself from the time that last breath disappears.


How far have you been able to impact to the life of the people around you?
How well have you been able to live your life?
Did you even believe in God at all?
Your answers to those questions tells about your true value after death.


If truly you have positively Impact to the life of the people around you,
Surely they will miss and pray for you after departure.
If not,
They will bless you with the opposite of prayer every time they remember what you have done to them.


Therefore, every of your action counts even more than what you can imagine,
Try all your possible best to ensure you make positive impact.
Because death approaches everyone as we grow older
And our current action is what will be left behind after death catches up with us.
