I didn't know it, but my father had a brain tumour. Everything happened very fast. Within a year, he was gone. Because I was so young, I didn't completely understand the concept of death.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Death is something that happens to others, you think, until it happens to you.
I've worked very hard to become comfortable with how death works and why it happens. I now know that death isn't out to get me.
Death is with you all the time; you get deeper in it as you move towards it, but it's not unfamiliar to you. It's always been there, so what becomes unfamiliar to you when you pass away from the moment is really life.
Death may simply be an alteration in consciousness, a transition for continued life in a nonmaterial form.
There is no such thing as death. In nature nothing dies. From each sad remnant of decay, some forms of life arise so shall his life be taken away before he knoweth that he hath it.
Death, like birth, is a secret of Nature.
Death is very mysterious to us. One moment someone is there with us, and the next moment they're not.
The death of what's dead is the birth of what's living.
Death is the beginning of something.
I understand what happens to the brain when people are near death, and I had always believed there were good scientific explanations for the heavenly out-of-body journeys described by those who narrowly escaped death.
