生老病死
Many of us actually think that human will actually go through the above level for sure. What I mean is the exact sequence birth, old, illness and then death. The only thing that makes everything different is the timing but do you ever actually think that it doesn’t appear to be so. Even me, myself thinks that it is a must in everyone’s life until I found out something.
Birth ( 生) – Are you sure everyone will go through birth? Those who never get to give birth to the infant or better known as miscarriage, then birth actually never exists isn’t it? There is life but never birth. Agree with that?
Old （老）– Human think old is part of cycle of life. I believe most of us do think that getting old is a WILL one day when there is a birth but actually it is only part of it can be said as true because not everyone tends to get old. Some of us might not even get old and die but die because of illness or even accident and many more possibilities which are unpredictable in life.
Illness （病） – Does everyone die because of illness? No, not necessary! Some may even die because of accident or even being murdered or do not even get to see the world yet. So illness is actually just part of life that we, human will go through BUT it is not a certain thing at all.
Death （死）– Death somehow is a MUST in life. Whenever there is a life born there will be death for sure to make us apart. Everyone will die one day but the time will be different and type of death that makes it different. Some may die in peace, suffer or even unpredictable death.
Now, what I wish to bring up in this post is actually that not everyone will go through the four levels for sure. It all depends on consequences of human and other human deed. We shall live life to the fullest and not wasting it. Always thinks there are always more unfortunate people than you are. Life will be merrier and happier than you can ever imagine.

For birth, yes, those women who had gave birth are blessed with the joy of giving birth. It's a beautiful experience in life but to me, birth is the first day of our lives in this world. Birth is the Gift of Life.
As for Old, all of us will get old one day. But, that's just on physical appearance. We can still stay young at heart. Older means wiser.
Illness on the other hand is also something inevitable. Somehow and some point in life, we fall sick. But, it doesn't mean we're going to die. Health is important. Care for ourselves. Eat well, sleep well and live well.
Finally death is as what you said. We all are destined to die one day. But, when? No one knows except the Lord. So, Live life to the fullest and love it to the deepest.
illness not only apply physical, i guess it applies to mental too :)
