untimely death

Sometimes at one point of your life, you are walking in your house. Your ceiling lamp which seem to be good and well all the time suddenly fall down and hit directly on you. You pass out and pass away just like that on that spot. This is it, out of nowhere you are suddenly death when you are thinking of taking another cup of water to drink.  The truth is.. nope. The lamp didn't fall on me yet . I am merely taking a look on my ceiling lamp and realise that it is very true that death can happen anytime. To me, that looks like an untimely death . As if i was there and the ceiling lamp happen to fall, i would have gone from this world and move on to my next life right from my home.

Perhaps the glimpse of the lamp are teaching which i consider lucky if it is just remain a teaching. It may have teach that even the safest place to your security identity (the one who define who yourself are, your name, your background and so on) can suddenly become unexpected. What you have been so familiar with all these years can suddenly change and gone in a second.

The lamp in fact had make me feel more appreciate of the buddha mantra in my life. Perhaps it is because of the blessings of mantra that something like that have been averted. That something bad which are not suppose to happen in the first place was averted from happening?
