Life and Death

We know that everyone has to face death after we have born. I heard someone said they are fear of death and did not want to face it while others said they are living with much difficulties and the world is so horrible, rather die faster. It is really fear to face death? Every ordinary people may scare to die where we do not know what may have happened on us in the next seconds. We have a lot of things which have not realised and the people around us will be upset when we have gone. Nevertheless this is the reality of life even an animal has to face it, they have parents as well why we still wanted to kill them.
 Where we dare to say I have no regret about my life at the last breath of our life we then have already been amounted to have got victory in our life. Therefore we should do more things which are meaningful during our life time. For doing this our life will be enriched and will have less grudge harbouring in our heart. Furthemore we should strive to be a great and decent human. What is meant by great human? According to my opinion great and decent human are where a person who dedicates to the society and promotes world peace. I am doing this kind of thing I have been trying to be a great and decent human even I am praying for this target every morning and evening. But it seems like I am very far from the path of the great human where I am a weak person in terms of knowledge and intellegence. I am not a person who can count in a few seconds and my IQ is not good. I am lack of confidence when I am sharing something. I have a lot of things to share which are beared in my heart but I am not dare to speak louder because I have lack of confidence I will easily be broken when I am sharing. I hate those who break my sharing but in fact I have to thank them for oppressing me where I have been in adversities I will fight to survive. I have to surmount it! Death is nothing to fear where we have achieved what we want. There was a women sharing her mother experience during a discussion meeting that her mother was facing serious illness during her lifetime which was breast cancer. During the treatment she did not suffer even can go out to do home visit in sharing the power of nan myo ho ren ge kyo to the people around her. She had been diagnosed that she would only have 3years life and the illness would recur in 1 year after the she was treated. but she was still living after 3 years and had been treated due to her strong faith. The illness had not begun to recur untill 10 years later her disease started to recur and had rampant to the whole body. Doctor said she only had 10 days to live and at that time she was 70. This time there was side effect where she vomit and her hair was falling after receiving treatment. Even though she was going to die soon she was not fear of her leaving. She said she had no regret about her life where she had created miracle and many people had been inspired to live courageously due to her strong faith. She said she wanted to be born in a family who embraces Nichiren Daishonin's Buddhism where she can continue to chant. I was moved and it was so touching that an ordinary women had such a strong conviction. Therefore we are human who is an ordinary living thing but we can create a great history of life in which anyone who has read the "history book" will automatically be moved. This is also what I mention a great and decent human.
