Now


”ロウソクの火は、いつか必ず消えるものと思ってるのに身近な人間が死ぬということは当たり前に思えない。でも、生まれた限り死ぬのは当然のことで、逆に考えたら、今を生きてることの方が不思議。だから、死を恐れる前に今を大切に生きなさい。”

"It's normal when candle burns out but is so hard to imagine when someone we love passed away.Human are born to be die. Oppositely, it is more mysterious why we live now.Therefore live your life NOW importantly before you fear the death "

A few word from the monk after my friend attended her grandmother's funeral.

I hope that my translation is good enough for you to understand the meaning of the original passage in Japanese. Anyway one important point is--Don't waste your time, live every second in your life without regret!!
