My thoughts about Carlos Castaneda's last battle on earth

I am a fan of Carlos Castaneda's book series, I can't deny it. A lot of my friends have
come to me asking me about his death and his departure to the unknown. Why did he not
vanish like Juan Matus?

For me, you can read his books as fiction or real stories but that does not matter to me. His stories,
as in religion, they don't really proof you if they are real or not...you need to have faith. But in
Castaneda's case, I think he showed to see the reality in the world that we live in and how to keep
your discipline in whatever you do 24 hrs a day and 365 days. Tha't what matters to me and at
this point in my life, I don't think about heavens or hell because there is no real proof about it.
I already accepted death as my advisor. Death is always walking next to us and someday he will
look at my straight to my eyes telling me that is time to go and I won't fight back.

Life is short and I play very hard everyday. Hopefully, I can negotiate some kind of deal with
Death in my last battle on earth.
