I wanted to acknowledge that life goes on but that death goes on, too. A person who is dead is a long, long story.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Someone who is about to die does not mourn the dead.
Dealing with death is there forever, really, you know, because we all have to face it.
It's not lost on me that everyone dies, but some people have a kind of immortality about them, and you can't imagine that they will ever be gone.
Sometimes a person has to be dead a while before people can appreciate what they did when they were alive.
A death from a long illness is very different from a sudden death. It gives you time to say goodbye and time to adjust to the idea that the beloved will not be with you anymore.
Death is a companion for all of us, whether we acknowledge it or not, whether we're aware of it or not, and it's not necessarily a terrible thing.
Films and gramophone records, music, books and buildings show clearly how vigorously a man's life and work go on after his 'death,' whether we feel it or not, whether we are aware of the individual names or not. There is no such thing as death according to our view!
Anyone I know who's almost died has come out of it, at least for a while, looking at things differently.
Death is either an incredible ending to a story or, more often than not if you ask the right questions, it's the beginning of a story.
I hope I am not too repetitive. However, coming to terms with death is part of the general human situation.
