The World Is Ending...
The world is ending...

Knowing when I'll die frightens me, because no matter how normalized this concept of mortality and the "circle of life" is, I know one day I'll be gone, and no one will remember me. I know that one day, I will lose myself in a dark void, and I'll no longer know those I love. It frightens me that the years that have been lost and used to build these relationships will all just disappear in the blink of an eye.
But in the meantime and at the same time, I bid not farewell to everyone, but a hello, because I'll see you once again... on another side of this complex universe. The one that has come to be known as our home. As Jane Goodall** said, "The beauty of our planet is not dead but lying dormant, like the seeds of a dead tree. We shall have another chance." Only a fragment of her imagination reflects the wisdom she's attained over the years, and in doing so, I think that Jame Goodall has educated me, and enlightened me about my perception in ways I didn't comprehend. To continue, I think that everyone's panorama is different, and I wouldn't challenge the way they view the end of the world. For me though, an apology to those near and far is a validation of my morals, and in a time when the world will disappear, they deserve this testimony.
In my final words, I hope this letter finds four people before this world perishes: my family and my best friend. It's because, throughout the years, I've been reassured that death is all-natural, that it comes full circle, and is something I shouldn't waste my precious minutes worrying about. But, I've come to see that when the world is ending, it is something to gnaw at, because forever is gone now, and only memories stay. And lastly, to my best friend: because we're dying today, and the world is at its last straw, I want to convey thanks. For being my other half. For being there, even if it's 427 miles away. The world is ending, and I want you to know that our relationship is forever after we say goodbye.
The world is ending, and I wish you all luck on your way, as you tread down this final path. The world is ending, I'll see you all on another fateful day.
4 people... heartbroken bro

DeleteThis passage is brilliantly written; I enjoy this very abstract and big-pictures of yours. But... we can always try to mitigate (a contributor of the world's demise). But life is meant to decay...
