Borrowed Time



In the world of the living, the topic about dying is the most eluded subject of conversation. The word death could easily spoil a rather fun-filled evening of socializing. We are so huddled up in our own comfort zones that we decline to talk about it. Is it because of its morbid connotation? Or are we simply in denial?

Life is sweet. We love it too much, we forget that we are just living in borrowed time. We can control how we live and choose a lifestyle that suits us, but we cannot deny the fact that we are all just passing through. Sooner or later, the clock of life will stop ticking and death will come knocking at the door.
