The Inevitability and Certainty of Death
We are just passengers on a road that time draws for us from birth to death with no control over either of the two events.
We have no control over the two most important events in our lives…our birth and our death. Though some people may have the ability to preside over the time and manner of their death, no one can stop death. If we have no free will when it comes to being born and the fact of dying, then aren’t we just passengers moving along a line laid down by time, spanning the distance between birth and death, without the ability to alter this pre-determined journey to our eventual demise, irrespective of whether the path is straight or crooked.
