Death

Death is the thing most people fear the most. I myself however do not,

death can mean a lot of things. To me death is a restraint on life, a barrier

which holds people from living life to its fullest. I hate being restrained,

being set boundaries. However death also deserves respect, because if you do not

respect death, you die, literally!

What causes death? Well, there are a lot of things that cause death.

Disease, old age, Natural and un-natural occurrences, and suicide. The focus of

this essay is to tell my views on the leading cause of death. What is the

leading cause of death? I believe it is AIDS.

AIDS, Acquired Immune Deficiency, is the disease that renders the body’s

immune system unable to resist invasion by several microorganisms that cause

serious infections. AIDS is transmitted by blood, through intimate sexual

contact, from infected mothers to their babies in the uterus, and perhaps

through infected mother’s milk.

Currently there is no cure for AIDS, however research is showing hopeful

signs. Research has made breakthroughs the past years and have come up with ways

to slow things down, but not cure AIDS.

There are many ways to prevent AIDS. I believe the leading way is

abstinence. No sex until your sure of your sexual partners past sexual history

should you consider sex. If you must have sex then have safe sex. Safe sex

includes using any instrument or object which does not allow bodily fluids to be

exchanged. Preventing AIDS is something we all can do. No one is forced to have

sex (unless raped), no one is forced to do drugs with infected needles and no

one wants it, so people should get smart and wake up! AIDS, say it, think it

over in your head, AIDS will kill people, and AIDS will kill you.

Death and AIDS go hand in hand. However we all must be optimistic for

the future of everyone. As well as being optimistic one must be understanding

for all those who have AIDS, we are only human.
