My grandpa's funeral was today.

Posted by JakBaronKing - February 29th, 2012


He lived a good, healthy, and happy life.

Though...diabetes is a bitch. Seriously, you can drink and eat healthy all your life. But unless you take your insulin, you fall asleep and never wake up.

When I die...I want this song to play at my funeral.

----

Pouring out my thoughts below...

Listen to this while you read. It helps.

It's a funny thing...death.

Logically it would make sense for death to occur. Some live, some die, some have a chance to pass on their genes, other's don't.

Survival of the fittest.

Owing everything we have to our past ancestors.

So what do we pass on now?

Hopes, dreams, knowledge & wisdom?

...

That hasn't been the case lately.

With so many unwanted pregnancies and children being mistreated or abandoned.

And people in general feel animosity, hatred, and jealousy towards others.

They sneer, covet, and rage.

It's not their faults, it's how they think, how they feel inside....

It's heart-breaking to see how our species is going into a world of chaos.

But the mere fact that we are aware of this means we can change.

So we are no longer a species of survival or comfort.

But rather we are a species of finding emotional strength and friendship.

And perhaps this 'time-limit' means we shouldn't have too much time to be emotionally upset or problematic, spoiled in personality, or unnecessarily dramatic.

Emotional strength comes from within.

I guess one could analogize this and say that "God is within you" or "Namaste" or "Kami Sama Ga Mamoru Youni".

However you want to call it.

Just try and feel that warmth within yourself.

Because one day, you will die too.

And that warmth will keep you alive eternally.

---

Anyone reading this...I would like you to simply 'contemplate'.

About .... anything you want.

Just clear your mind.

And let the thoughts roll out.

Choose a music that best fits your appeal.

Soothing.

A bit more funky.

Do you fear...or do you embrace the 'known evils' of yourself and others?
*only works with headphones. Warning: might scare you. might not. might make you Satanic.

Do you feel more logical? More 'dub-step'.

I forget that OPM used to be a good band.

I really only like that 'one' song.

*Hugs*

Thanks girl.

I'm sorry about your grandpa, but I'm happy he lived a good life.
..
It is the known and the unknown
and the simplicity of choice
the complexity of decision
the beauty of voice

let me be known by them!
can't fight my bones
my haunted heart
my eyes heavy stones

My vision is open
gaping dreams
gawking at galaxies
yet to have seen

At the brim, can you believe
to fathom, to touch
my curiosity burns!
my level of much

I'll touch it for a century
but I know I will hold it
..

Also, I learned something about life this past week. Life seems to be like a muscle ..you have to make your self uncomfortable, do things you don't want to do, to grow as a person. Because after the difficulty ...you feel good ..you come out better.

So this has really changed how I look at things I dislike ...things that make make me uncomfortable. Might be things I really need to do.

Nice poetry man.

it is true that we don't want to do things that we know we should be doing.

It's like the analogy of a BIG TREE. It 'has' to come down otherwise it will fall by the weight of the snow and crash down.

Now...you can't take the whole tree down at once...it requires focus, and trimming daily bit by bit. But in order for it to be done before winter snow...it must have daily but 'small' yet 'FOCUSED' dedication.

As for tragedy of life? Well...sometimes that tree falls before schedule sometimes.

And we just gotta live with it.
