Living the Life from the End

(Turkcesi asagidaki postta)

The most unpleasant side of the life is the way it ends. Indeed it would be more fun and wonderful to live it from the end; wouldn’t it? So, How?
You are waking up in a funeral ceremony, when you open your eyes, you see everyone standing immaculately, praying for you and respecting your death. You stand up…You are old, wise and mature. Everybody, who you know, is around. Reputation, respect, kids and grandchildren are already there. You leave the place comfortably in your car.
As soon as you are born, you are entitled to get salary from the state. How beautiful… You have a previously purchased car, a house or a flat…Until you are in your 60s, everything is well programmed and guaranteed. Your health gets better as you keep living, your muscles get stronger, you get stronger and firmer. One day you decide to get a job and start working. From the first day you start your job, you are given a plaquette with your name written on it, and a watch as a welcoming present. You start your working life from the top, as a general manager of the company, with good salary and an experienced person. Everyone is standing and bowing in front of you to obey your orders. Also there are really pleasant things happening to your body. You get thinner and fit. What is more, your hormones are making you content as well, perfect… Enjoyable days are beginning.
While the things are moving nicely, one day your boss tells you that it will be nice if you could enroll in a university. Meanwhile, your father pops up, telling you that you have been studying so hard, so you should come back home, quit your job, start a university, and you will be given pocket money. Are you aware of the pleasure you are going to get?
Your subjects in the classes are getting easier, everything becomes easier for you. Parties, discos, boy/girl friends are increasing day by day. Then suddenly your parents start to take you to school and back home. Now you don’t even have to drive a car or walk to school. Another day, they tell you to stop going to school and tell you to stay in the house, play with your toys. Your mum feeds you, and you don’t even need to go to toilet on your own now. Then your mum starts to suckle you and another enjoyable period of yours begins. Now your food is readily available anywhere you want and need.
And finally one day, you find yourself in a dark, warm and calm environment. From then on, you don’t even need to open your mouth to get food, because there is a cord which is feeding you. You get smaller everyday, and one day you become only a CELL.

AAAnnnnd, one day your life ends with a wonderful experience.
