Life was all a Dream so Put me to Sleep
-Before Their Eyes, Life Was All A Dream, The Dawn of My Death
Sometimes I wonder, how would death feel? Not in my perspective, I mean to others. All the legends are legends, but they're dead. Would they have had the same respect if they were alive? Or would they have lost all of their greatness sometime after? Would Elvis still be looked up to so much? Would Tupac be a legend? Would B.I.G. be the same if he was walking around right now? Who knows. We'll never know, cause it already happened.
What would happen if I all of a sudden died? I'm not saying I want to find out soon, But I don't know, I wonder. What happens if the PA system just one day announces I died, after a break or something? What would they say? Would their be laughing? Jumping? Hoots? Random hardcore dancing in the 300s? I don't know, but that's the thing that I wonder most. And when I ask, people say they'd party. Is that really the honest truth? I don't know, it seems like people would be insensitive enough to do that. But then I also wonder how my closer friends would feel. Would they cry? Would they mourn? Would they remember me, or would I be out of their memories the next year. Or even week. I know that no one would give me an honest answer if I asked them, so why bother to ask. Few people that said they'd cry really made me feel special, but I honestly wouldn't want people mourning for me. I haven't influenced anyone or marked myself in their lives yet and I don't think I'd be that special. I don't know, I feel like a little emotional bastard writing this hahaha. But I'm sure a lot of people wonder of how people would feel when they die. If only there was a way to FIND OUT without actually dying. Hmm I dont know, I'll just keep living my life the way I am, and see where it goes. Hopefully I go down the right path and see hella more years open up in frontta me. I don't plan on leaving this world soon, no matter what. Everyone keep their heads up and keep your cool lives stress free.
P.S. This isn't a suicide note or anything, I was just expressing how I'm curious and such. =]

This is a great thought. Upon reading this at first I thought you meant what it feels like to die. But then I understood and now it's making me wonder, too...hmm...
I've always wondered the same thing, at first, I would've said you were wrong, about all the important people being legends. Legends are still legends, they will die, if they haven't already, and people remember the legacies they left behind, which makes them a legend. I've also always wondered what would people think if I die, it's probably gonna be like Vernon, if people don't know me... they wouldn't care as much, people close... well I wouldn't know that would I? Haha.
Thus, this is a controversial topic. lol...
Well this is just my perspective, it's quite horrible that people have to die in order to be remembered for all of the great things they've done. Death allows people to truely recognize what one has accomplished, because that person can't do whatever great things they did anymore. For some people, death is a wake-up call of realizations and for others, it's just a part of life.
But nobody is going to dance in the 300s if you were to die. People care, I care.
