Death is coming

The closer death creeps up upon me the less I am able to understand the reasons for life or living.

Yes I have experienced a close family member dying and unlike television it takes decades to handle such a thing. To think I am going to put my family through such a thing when I finally leave is more horrific to me than the thought of death itself.

My life was and is still a learning experience but when all said and done what am I to do with all this accumulated learning over my lifetime if I just die. There is no logic or reason to this.

Long ago I became aware that the God story that is sold to the majority is just a nice story to give mankind with a message of a basic layout of how nice life could be if everyone followed these ideas. Not many in life do and if one thinks about it the good and evil structures actually depend on each other. The good that can be experienced in life is only understood as good when there is it's opposite to compare it to. This is not rocket science only common sense in reality. I am not saying we need to experience bad but understanding in it is needed to appreciate the great things many of us can have in our lives. From birth to death there are many ways mankind helps his fellow man. How many ways can you help?

Reasons Why You Should Avoid Being A Workaholic

By Jacob Stewart

Are you one of those workaholics who want to get as far in their careers as possible no matter what the price or consequences? Are you one of those people to whom life has no meaning without work?

There is totally no mistake in having an ambitious drive towards success. If anything, all of us should have it. The only perk is that this ambition if let to go unchecked can be the whole reason for your love life's undoing.

By being a workaholic you can flush your love life down the drain and here are some reasons why.

1. Being absorbed in your work full time can only lead to one thing for your mind and body: fatigue. With a fatigued mind and body who even thinks of making a good impression even if they really do get to go out on a date?

2. Focusing only on work will make you miss out on a lot of the other good things that life has to offer. Even though you do manage to go out for an exciting date, your mind will always be on your work and you will not enjoy.

3. Some of the ingredients that go into having a healthy relationship are commitment and attention. If all of your commitment and attention is going into your work then guess who suffers, your partner who is not getting any of these two things.

4. Spending quality time together that you can enjoy is the main idea of being in a relationship. Without this, you will only grow away from each other as you put all your time into work.

Balance your personal life and your work and you will have a much fuller success in life.
