Departing

 

Like it or not

whether ready or unprepared 

someday it will all come to an end 

and it is time to go        

Though  departing is certain 

as certain, as the sun setting in the west

having risen in the east 

people are  reluctant to discuss death 

any discussion is avoided 

it is  like something that is happening

happens to someone else.... 

If discussed in the normal 

everyday conversations 

as any other activity in life 

like eating, bathing , working, playing

perhaps, people wouldn't fear departing  

They would accept it as a normal transition 

and prepare themselves better 

iron out relationships, prepare wills

and generally be ready for another journey 

After all as an author said 

death is an illusion- no death really occurs

merely a transition to the next state of existence.
