Death is not something about ending. It may be the start of something new that cannot be predicted. No one knows what life would be like in the blink of an eye. That is why you should live life to the fullest, whether you proceed with caution or you want to savor the moment you have and carelessly spends it. Life is short but incredibly beautiful, that’s it.
I am Lawrence Tolentino. At the age of 35, I died of a sudden heart attack in the middle of my leisure time in nature outside my house. I like sports since I was a kid and until now, it makes me young doing my favorite leisure, biking in some places with or without my friends. My family still supported me, also now that I achieved my dream of being an Engineer.
I do not fear anything that is happening in my life, not that I didn’t have any doubts nor hesitations about doing something adventurous, because I can say that I have lived my life until the day I died. It was bittersweet. Knowing you have no time to properly say goodbye to your loved ones. Some parts of me fear death and knowing it as the end of eternity. Thus, lying in a hospital bed at that time, my wife holding my
hands and telling me to fight; even on the verge of lacking any oxygen in my body, I still find the strength to say to her that God just lent us a beautiful life and it’s about time to thank him and give it back to him. Also telling her to take good care of our children as I kissed her goodbye.
-End-
