We all die, obviously. Although we need the air we breathe to live, it is also a poison that is slowly killing us 'I die a little every day'. This is why there is such a thing as oxygen poisoning. People who die of old age usually die of oxygen poisoning. I think the air is poison so that there is no chance of us living forever. Everything has to end. We will all end up wherever people end up when they die 'don't yell at the dead show a little respect' we will all end up dead so maybe we should be respectful because we might end up seeing them when we die. It's not just our lives that are terminal, it's everything. The world will end one day. It could be tomorrow. Or not. Either way, if we all lived forever and we knew we lived forever there would be no meaning to life or anything we do. We would take our lives and everything in them for granted. But we already do that. (Some of us do anyway) that is why some of us cannot see a meaning to life 'don't let your spirit die before your body does'.
Maybe I'm wrong but I had to write something. My uncle just died and thought maybe if I thought about death it might help in some weird way. Anyway I can't sleep.
