As Freddie Mercuru sang, show must go on. I think the song kind of has everything in it about facing death with. I've been listening it a lot as a young gal and lately too. Mercury dying shortly after this song gave it even more important message. I'm so sad Mercury died, but he gave face to so many things: beign gay artist, Aids, masterful vocalist and performer etc.
It's the legacy we leave behind that counts. Our childern, our friends and family. Everyone we hav once touched. Death should not be romanticed or idoliced. It is there always. I hope I'll have the courage to face it when time comes.
I don't like losing loved ones, but in a way we should see death as a gift also. If everyone lived forever, would nothing really matter? Embrace life fully everyday and love the ones around you with all you've got. That's my goal.
