-- Of Life and Death --

 Many of us are afraid of death.
But have we ever realized?
Have you ever realized;
What is more afraid?
What is scarier?
How about to end our life,
to be gone; but never truly lived?

We only live once.

You only live once.

--YOLO--
that's how they define life.
To do whatever they want to do.
To say whatever they want to say.  

Without knowing, without learning 

the purpose of this life.

Hey you! Yes you, wake up! 

Do you know why do we exist? 

Do you know we do not live once;
but we live our lives twice? 

Yes we do; but nobody has ever realized.

What? Why? Because dunya tells them lies.

Hey you! Yes you, listen to me!
Death is not the ending. 

Death is only the beginning.
Real life starts once we die. 

Real journey starts once our soul flies; 

Flies out from our bodies.

Everybody dies; yet not all truly lived.

Where are we heading ?

People know the answer for sure.

You know. I know. We all know. 

But some pretend they know nothing.

Some ignore the words of Creator. 

Some ignore the messages of Messenger.

Because satisfying evil desires;

Seems more desirable, more favorable.

People want to be better.

People want to change. 

Yet, they're afraid of change.

We are afraid of change.

You want a change?

Change begins from within 

To fight the inner devils;

deep inside us,by resisting,

by fighting like a warrior,

For Allah, for a better us.

Life can be bittersweet sometimes.

There are some days; 

when every wish and dream seems true.

There are some days; 

when the clouds begin to fill in, 

.and block the light.

There are hard times; 

when we are no longer strong

Yet, we pretend to be strong. 

We keep walking, keep going on,

though it feels like our souls going astray.

People will come and go,

But our faith must stay forever,

Finding the purpose of being here,

Of whys and whatfores. 

Before we're heading to hereafter;

So we have the concrete answer, 

the akhirah - the everlasting life,

For human of the earth.
