If you don't know how to die, don't worry; Nature will tell you what to do on the spot, fully and adequately. She will do this job perfectly for you; don't bother your head about it.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Her death has had a huge effect on me. It felt like a big hole appeared on my left side - apparently your left side is your mother - which I thought could never be filled. Now I think what you have to do is fill it with yourself because your mother is part of you. I'm easing into that space, using it and being comforted by it.
Death is the ugly fact which Nature has to hide, and she hides it well.
I'm trying to die correctly, but it's very difficult, you know.
Do not seek death. Death will find you. But seek the road which makes death a fulfillment.
Here's a thing about the death of your mother, or anyone else you love: You can't anticipate how you'll feel afterward. People will tell you; a few may be close to right, none exactly right.
Don't be afraid of death so much as an inadequate life.
My mother killed herself when I was 12. I won't complete that relationship. But I can try to understand her.
Death is a very dull, dreary affair, and my advice to you is to have nothing whatsoever to do with it.
The best way to deal with that is to live in a fully conscious, compassionate, loving way. Don't wait until you're on your deathbed to recognize that this is the only way to live.
When someone is dying, there is nothing you really can do, it's a horrible situation, and... you just have to get through it.
