When death is the ultimate destination for all of us, why are we not enjoying our lives?

About This Quote

In this quotation, author Raghu Karnad has considered the mindset of a person who has no fear of death. He believes that the only reason we do not enjoy our lives is because we are scared of death. We think that if we enjoy our lives, death will take it away from us. The idea of enjoying life sounds great, but it is a difficult concept to understand. Since we can’t live forever, why should we live our lives to the fullest? If you want to live a long life, then I suggest that you enjoy your time here now and don’t worry about tomorrow.
