But people who are still alive when you die might hurt because you are gone—and

that is OK

People love other people and usually it hurts when people we love die

We even comfort ourselves with those stories that the dead person is not really

dead—and that is OK too

But of course everyone dies—and you will too

When you say «I want this» or «I feel this» you are talking about yourself

You might think that yourself is different from the rest of the world,

or you might think that you are just a little part of the world

But when you die yourself dies and so does your view of the world

So you won’t have a world or a self or any thoughts about either—it just won’t

exist

When you die you won’t feel sad any more, you won’t worry anymore

You won’t care about anything, or want anything

You won’t be able to enjoy being dead though because you won’t be anything—only

dead

That is why you should love life

There are lots of things in life that seem bad

But, since life only happens once and there is only one you, love life while

you can—no matter what happens

If you feel sad at least you can feel sad

If you are worried at least you can be worried—you exist, you are alive

If you love life this way when it comes time to die you will be happy because

death is the perfect end to life

Life is only good because death ends it

So, live and love life because you don’t even know how, when or why,

but since you’re alive—you're going to die
