How to use "Perishing" in context?
When someone says to you that your life is fading away, you may feel alarmed, terrified or even lifeless. This is because when someone is talking about their own life, what they mean is that their life is coming to an end.
That is not to say that everyone's life is coming to an end, but if you are thinking about your own life and death, then you are right on track. Still, even if you think your life is limited, you can make the most of it by growing closer to those who are important to you.
