The Cost of Life

If you have no responsibility of life, or no zeal to survive, how will you ever live life with fun, or passion. The cost of life is greater than the effects of death. Some people never find the meaning of life. Then again, who knows the meaning of life? If your life was about to end right where you stand, would you feel accomplished in what you have done with your life. Or if you had the chance to save someone else in exchange for your own life, would you do it, or would you try and save yourself instead?

For example on April 15, 1912 the greatest ship ever built, so to speak, sank in one of the coldest oceans in the world. The Titanic was suppose to be "unsinkable". It was said that "God himself couldn't sink the ship". That is why most people believe that the ship hit that extreme iceberg that cold night. The point is, that night people were frantic trying to save themselves. But why save yourself when you have already lived your life. Wouldn't you want to give someone a chance to live their life, and if you didn't wouldn't you feel very morose for killing someone else. If it were a child you were trying to save? Many people died on that ship the night it sank, but they could have saved many more than what they did, but they chose to be selfish and save themselves; because they thought they were more valuable than a child's life.

My point to you is, is the cost of your life more than some one else's? Or is it the same and you should be the person to die because you have already lived your life and you would like to give them a chance to live? Why be the ferine person and want to let someone else die for you?
