Am I afraid to Die?

Am I afraid that I will die?

 

To say I’m not would be a lie

 

its not the fear of the unknown

 

but to leave my family all alone

 

my kids are young and being shaped

 

in love and kindness they should be draped

 

the world’s a cold, unforgiving place

 

and filled with problems they will face

 

I want to be here in times of need

 

with a helping hand or loving deed

 

I love them more than life itself

 

and that is why I guard my health

Your last line is most significant. There's no point dwelling on things beyond our control-- but some things are. There's also much truth in the old saying that the best things in life are free--- though that is perhaps a moot point when family obligations are in the equation. :smile:
