★ trees, life and death.
Yesterday, in the afternoon, I was climbing a tree. I got three splinters on my hand, and when I jumped off the lowest branch, I scraped my knee. I was a little careless. Nevertheless, it's not going to stop me from climbing trees.
But then I was reminded of a conversation I had on the network. I had said that it was normal for people to die everyday. If I had been a little more careless, I might have slipped and broke my neck falling off the tree and died that is, if I could die. It wouldn't have made any difference, because it is natural that people die everyday, the circumstances are just different. It could be because of a crazed madman on a killing rampage, natural causes, a sickness, a disease, a serial killer, suicide... The fact remains that people die, regardless of age, gender, social status or race. Some of them can get lucky and be revived, auctioned off, but not a lot of them do...
I wonder, should I die, not that I'm saying I will die in the next few hours, would I be auctioned off? Would someone mourn for me?
As it is, I like how things are. Me, being alive, although it doesn't seem so fulfilling without... Well, I've said too much.
