D E A T H

When King Lear dies in act 5, do you guys know what Shakespeare had written? He's written "He dies". Thats all. Nothing more. No fanfare, No metaphor, No brilliant final words . The culmination of the most influential works of dramatic literature is "He dies".  I think Shakespeare, a genius, to come up with
"He dies". And every time i read those two words,I find myself overwhelmed with anxiety. I know its natural to be sad, but not because of the words "He dies", but because of the life we saw prior to the words. When someone have lived all the five of acts, I am not saying that we must be happy when someone is gone. I am just saying we must just turn the page. And if someone asks what had happened to him/her, just tell with all its pride and glory ,"He died"
                     "Life is an occasion , Rise to it."
