Abstract
Life has been a gift of God granted upon man. The way man has tried to lead his life, understand its real meaning, immortalize it, and avoid the unpredictable death hovering over existence has become the great obsession of man. Whenever man finds an opportunity away from the obsessions of everyday life, he tries to fathom this unattainable reality. To live with the Sword of Damocles threat of death has blurred the joy of life and assigned a bitter absurdity.Intellectuals, more than ordinary people, realize this reality that the sheer negligence of death may be the source of horror and anguish. But in reality, as the main purpose of this paper and as the major view point of Bobbin achieving after many years of working, thinking, and writing reveals this fact that the awareness of the ever unpredictable nature of death brings the real meaning to the life and being, an idea that flourishes every second of our existence and being; otherwise, we lose our life by the threat of death and negligence of the worth of our granted gift, our life.
