It is in man's nature to compare himself to others, and comparisons are where are judgments lie, and are the base point for your development as a human being. You take after your parents, you idolize a mentor, you work harder than your co-workers - it's all comparative, and it's what man thrives on.
Eventually, those comparisons are null, and death brings that about. You and your comparisons (that being other people and your ideas) are six feet under, and non-existent, just as you were before you were ever conceived.
Life is a wheel. And size doesn't matter. It all ends up at the same place.

And we all get a turn to have a spin at the wheel and a kick at the bucket. And when we have exhausted our turn, then someone else gets a chance to get up to bat. We can't stay at bat forever, eventually the inning is over.
And live life to your fullest, remember you can sleep 24 hours a day when you are 6 feet under. I am not saying push the edge all the time but take time to party and take time to relax and just smell the roses.
And if you have someone pass on, who meant a great deal to you, remember, you do not have to forget that person, memories are what give so much meaning to life. All you have to do is find a way to say goodbye.
