To 有缘人

there was once a wise man...and a lady whose son was dead...
the lady heard that the wise man could do anything..so she went to find him
she said, and cried at the same time:"oh, venerable sir, can you please bring my son back from death?i really need him.."
the wise man not being affected by her cry said:"First, bring me a mustard seed from a family where no death has occurred"
hapily, she went from home to hom finding for a family which no death has happened...
one day passed, two days passed...day by day, she went on finding...
at last, one day, she realised thatnot one family can run away from death...
she went back to the wise man and became one of his disciple...
this story can be read with the previous one...

This is a good story... but I don't understand the topic. Does it related to the content?

livingand dying is just like the movement of abdomen when you're breathing....
when you run fast, you breath fast, it moves fast
when you're resting, it moves as usual....
up and down, down and up, up and down, down and up

yeah, sometimes it just crosses my mind that life is so ... well, 脆弱? one's heart can just stop anytime like that, and die ...

everything is impemanent
you can walk on the road and then get banged by the car
or you can play on street where cars are passing by fats and then still be alive
die or not?what's the big deal?
but that doesnt mean you have to commit suicide, that's a very stupid thing to do, wasting your life, making other ppl sad, wasting all the money your parents used to bring you up...

Agree.
This is one of my duty to educate the youth. Not to give up their life so easily.

yup....dont give up live easily...
if you really believe in karma and rebirths...human body is the hardest to get...so dont waste your life....
if you dont...just like what i said....you're only hurting yourself and otthers by commiting suicide..
but if one day you really die of accident...that's no big deal...
