The reverse cycle of life

Dear Mausam,

A few days back Dhiraj sent me this wonderful article he came across in HT.

Thoughts of dying

The unfair thing about life is the way it ends. I mean, life is tough; it takes up a lot of your time. What do you get in the end of it? A death. I think the life cycle is all backwards. You should die first: start out dead; get it out of the way. You wake up in an old age home, feeling better every day. You get kicked out for being healthy; go collect your pension. Then, when you start work, you get a gold watch on your first day. You work 40 years until you're young enough to enjoy your retirement. You drink alcohol, you enjoy parties; you're generally promiscuous. (Hey, you've only got a few years left, what's the big deal?) And you get ready for High School. Then you go to primary school, you become a kid, you play; you have no responsibilities. And, finally, you become a baby. The last step, you spend your last nine months floating peacefully with luxuries like central heating, spa, room service on tap, larger quarters everyday and then... you finish off as an orgasm!

Interesting thought,isn't it?
Regards,
Ajj Kaim

well, i had this idea of being child forever and this thought still exists currently...but we can t fight against mother nature right? otherwise this Earth will be populated ...with things were to turn out yr way...instead of 6billion ppl, it will be 600 trillion ppl... Mother Earth cannot support us seriously...everything will be defecit inclusive of resources...so God is smart...balance birth with death

I don't exactly know why I am even bothering to comment... but will put in my two cents.. in...
at first thought it seems like a fun relaxing idea, but upon further thought.. I am very happy the way life is right now.. and either case.. I have a very short term memory for hardships..so once it dosen't take me long to forget the struggle and miserable moments in life ... I am still able to smile and be happy

Reminds me of this advert I saw on tele, a Mercedes ad:) Where they say the exact same thing, why do we have to work so hard and only achieve the car in our old age, we might as well start backwards!!!
