In my personal opinion, the real idea to be real is through acquiring and persevering roots and really hit us in our deep hearts’ core in order to make essential changes in the way we think. Not only that, we shall match our attitude and precedence upon the reflection of impermanence. Understanding the evanescent intellectually only would not help us to cover every blades of grass on the field. On the other hand, realizing evanescent and how it pervades all present phenomenons are fairly important. Further improvements will be slow or nil if these apprehensions are left out. There would be countless changes if the awareness of impermanence is not intellectual but arising from our heart. It would then construct clear signs and indications that eventually bad behaviour becomes good with ease. Containing our egos would be pleasurable. We would not spend our time acquiring wealth through the ‘fast’ way or reputation through 'counting' the good deeds you’ve done. Over obsession in obtaining quick fame and wealth would definitely tie us down for years and yet get us nowhere. Yes! Some of the people do get rich or famous ‘overnight’ however those who get rich through evil ways should be ticked off the book. Take a look at all the people who have it (Ka-ching $$$), yet it ends... at the very last breathe they take. No matter how powerful, wealthy, & famous we are, it all does not matter anymore. The truth within the good deeds we’ve done is what we carry within us. However, distracting ourselves now by having ‘fun’ will lead us to greater regrets and short of time to do anything beneficial in the end… Death however, is not the end... it is truly a transition or a passage to the other realm of being. Nonetheless, whether the passage we are led to is pleasant or not is totally dependent on us at present moment!

PS : Procrastinations and not pushing will never escape from the truths of impermanence and death. Never adjourn or simply not think about it. Instead, we should think about it, face it, fear it and from this...DO SOMETHING AND SOAR!
