Death

 What does it feel like to be dying. Everyone is slowly dying during their life from the moment they were born. The end is inevitable for everyone. No one can escape death, no one. So why do people try to lengthen their lifespan. It doesn't make sense to me. I can't imagine living for over one hundred years. I don't think I could do it. If I had to pick a perfect point to die it would maybe be in my sixties. Just let it all be done with. There's no point in prolonging the inevitable. I wish I could just end it all right quick. But that's frowned upon in most circles of human existence. I can't argue with that logic so I will keep it to myself. So, I will live until that time comes where I am no longer alive. I don't know how best to live mind you; I'm just winging it for the most part.

How much does this life really matter to anyone. I'm not saying it has to matter, just how much does it matter. I don't quite understand it myself. It would be nice to be able to have a statistic of exactly how much life matters to people. But I doubt there is such a stat. Oh well maybe it doesn't matter.

I tend to miss out on what matters most in life. Somehow it just tends to stop being important for some reason. I don't understand why that is. It just happens. There should be a way to understand what it is I am feeling at any given moment. But I don't quite grasp onto whatever it is I am actually feeling, and I am left lost and alone.

How long can someone be alone before they go mentally unstable. Isolation has got to be a factor on something that can destroy a person, can't it? I wonder what isolation would do to me. If I had no other choice but to isolate myself from the outside world. What would happen to me. Would I die faster having given up any hope for life? Or would I just survive and strive to do my best and see whatever happens out there. Who knows.

If suicide isn't a good way to go and living out my life is the only way to go, then it would seem I have a long road ahead of myself.

Suicidal Ideation

 Over the years I've had to deal with suicidal ideation. Those are thoughts of being dead, some more extreme than others. It causes issues for me a lot of the time. It's not an easy thing to talk about at all. Here's what it is: Suicidal ideation ( suicidal thoughts )  are thoughts or ideas centered around death or suicide . Experiencing suicidal ideation doesn’t mean you’re going to kill yourself, but it can be a warning sign.

An Opposition In All Things

Long has been the story told about how there must be an opposition in all things. From the pre-existence there was Satan, Lucifer the Son of the Morning. In the beginning we were with God in his presence. We learned all we could while there. Until the moment we couldn’t progress any more, we were unable to become like God. So, we were given the opportunity to come to Earth to gain a body. A Savior would be provided to atone for our sins enabling us to come back to the presence of God. The idea that an opposition must be in all things comes from 2nd Nephi: For it must needs be, that there is an opposition in all things. If not so, my firstborn in the wilderness, righteousness could not be brought to pass, neither wickedness, neither holiness nor misery, neither good nor bad. Wherefore, all things must needs be a compound in one; wherefore, if it should be one body it must needs remain as dead, having no life neither death, nor corruption nor incorruption, happiness nor misery, neither...

Temptation Bible vs Book of Mormon

In the Bible in 1 Corinthians 10:13 we find: There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able ; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it. But what might seem as a contradiction is found in Alma 13:28 But that ye would humble yourselves before the Lord, and call on his holy name, and watch and pray continually, that ye may not be tempted above that which ye can bear , and thus be led by the Holy Spirit, becoming humble, meek, submissive, patient, full of love and all long-suffering; So, which is it? Either God tempts you to a point and stops, or you have to actively pray not to be tempted beyond that no return point. Which is it?
