Death’s Wish
“I make people more happy”,life said.
“No,I’M the one who puts them outta their miseries .So i make em happy”,death countered.
“No you dont. No one WISHES to die,circumstances make them.”
“Circumstance as in their ‘life’. haha..got you there.”
“Life gives people a motive.Death only takes away all the goodness and wonder life has to offer.”,and life walked away.
Death sighed,having made sure life wasnt nearby,“I wish people wished to die more....i feel so unappreciated.”
Later.....after escaping the realms of time and of fate.
“Yes!!”,death yelled”i got the Essence Potion .Now i can change into something the world loves,like life.”
And he drank the whole potion.“Ah...i can feel it,everything seems-” But...he didnt feel
anything; anything he thought he was supposed to feel.“Why is there no fluroscent glow coming outta me??”
“Coz you are death.”,life said.
“What?”
“You cant just change and disappear like that.”,life was saying,“If death ceased of existence who will control the population rate?If you went away,and made everything and everyone immortal,there would no longer be a purpose to life...to me...to my existence...”
Death caught life’s smile and returned it. He realised how life was right.
“So you dont think i’m completely worthless then?”,death asked teasingly.
“No,i dont. WE maintain a balance;we make people’s mortal souls both miserable and worth living-slash-dying for .You and me..”
