What Conquers You?

Death and life are not that far apart. Life is every breath and death could be your last one. A happy day we want and troubles we do not dwell on. We are "impressed" by deep thoughts and "strive" to be wiser. But what have we really learned when we ignor reality just so we feel better. Reality is death was conqured and honest power is in our grasp. Life is what we were made for. Reality is many have made themselves the conquerer but in the end - only a breath away - it will conquer them and they will have no say. Curses we think put us in charge. Uncontrolled anger we think will solve the problem. True wisdom gives us a glimpse that we are wrong. But pride erases that conscience and arrogance blocks it from returning. Do we really care about the one who will be destroyed in a moment? Our words say yes and some actions point in that direction. But then we block that out just to feel relieved. Does it stunt your rest and haunt your dreams? How will they gain the real power to gain real life if no one takes a risk to tell them. Maybe they've heart it before - but now they think, know that no one cares because no one tries. You, you who claim victory, how dare you hot it like a selfish brat. What really conquered you? Who is really alive in you?
