Show Us how to Die

Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice~

Today I came across the story of Zach Sobiech, a boy around my age who passed away a few days ago. What's amazing, is that despite having a clear vision of physical death in full view a year ago, he decided made the most of it & has inspired many (including me) to live everyday to it's fullest positional.

Why I haven't deactivated Facebook

So today I came home after school completely soaked (weather was terrible) & was completely prepared to just relax & give my mind a rest after another week of school.

But that didn't quite happen.
After doing my usual 'Facebook run' today I came across a very interesting post my friend was tagged in. It seemed to be one of his friends engaging him in a debate about various things in Christianity. So after reading through his many questions, I got interested to do a reply myself as well.

The Endless Cycle

Think about your life.

Every morning, the dreadfulness of waking up early and forcing yourself out of bed. Then having to frantically rush around the house to get everything done before heading off for work or school.. The tiresome day then starts. Work, work & work...
As the day draws near, you're completely fatigued, wasted. You're finally in the comfort of your home after a long day. However, you've been handed stack loads of homework & assignments throughout the day to do, what rest is there?
You stay up till late at night to do more work. As you finish, as you slip into bed and close your eyes into slumber, you feel you deserve a long night's rest. But as soon as the world goes dark, it starts all over again, the alarm ring, the struggle to get out of bed, the continuous cycle of a busy life...

Why are you doing all this?
Isn't this cycle just full of stress & discomfort?
Where will it take you? To a prestigious university? To a good job?
And then where?
Why am I caught in this cycle?
