If death is imminent

[欧剑港]

Inspired by the article-Graceful Hands, I write down this passage.
It is the truth that nobody can avoid death and every life has its value, no matter little or tremendous it is. What I want to say is that we have to imagine death is imminent from time to time, to love our life and to be clear of what we have lived for, hence we would live an extraordinary life. Now, I take this opportunity to write down something that I want to be engraved on my mind, and that sharing with you by the way.
This thought had existed in my mind years ago, whereas, it didn't draw my attention and touch my heart until death appear in my sight.
One year ago, I have nothing to think of, but want to end my live of senior three, cause it likes a devil that make me a weak constitution and torment me by rhinitis. When the college entrance examination ended the time I should be very exciting, an emergency shocked me that two of my very-very-good neighbors are dying, because they got cancer abruptly. I had seen their sorrowful course that they went through the end of their road, which I can't neither avoided nor restrained. With no money treating the abrupt cancer, they were quickly gone one after another during September and November, making me so sad and leaving the deep shadow to me. Now, when refer to death, it reminds me of them, and at the same time, the thought that death is imminent.
Like what Helen said, we wouldn't be conscious of health until we are ill, if death is imminent, I believe that just few people are ready for it now, since it seems to be unnecessary. From my point of view, it is not bad to plan for the worst and hope for the best, so that we can remind ourselves to treasure everything we have.
If death is imminent, cherishing can be the most resounding word.
Love our life. However our life is, meet it and live it. Therefore, we have to cherish our life all the time, and make it an optimistic and meaningful life to live in. Things would not change, though, we can change our mind, and change our life.
Take good care of the people we love and ourselves especially, because only if we ourselves became stronger, can we be capable to take care of the people we love and the people love us. Remember telling the people we love and ourselves, from time to time, to note taking rest and doing exercise regularly, to develop good eating habits, and to pay attention to avoid every harmful things.
Be clear of what we have lived for and make every minute and second count. Time wouldn't stay and wouldn't be changed, but we can do something to make it longer. Don't hesitate as possible as we can, as it wastes time in doing nothing, be sure that everything we do are meaningful, and gradually upgrade ourselves and try our best to work better and efficiently. Therefore, we can live a stable and extraordinary life.
If death is imminent in mind, world is wonderful in life.
