The acceptance of death gives you more of a stake in life, in living life happily, as it should be lived. Living for the moment.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Death can really absorb a person. Lik most people, I would find it pleasant not to have to go, but you just accept that it's more or less inevitable.
Accepting your own mortality is like eating your vegetables: You may not want to do it, but it's good for you.
It is difficult to accept death in this society because it is unfamiliar. In spite of the fact that it happens all the time, we never see it.
Death is like taking an intermission when you can't come back. I like living and being around.
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.
An awareness of one's mortality can lead you to wake up and live an authentic, meaningful life.
There's something about death that is comforting. The thought that you could die tomorrow frees you to appreciate your life now.
It is neccessary to have wished for death in order to know how good it is to live.
Everything I do has the tinge of the finite, of my own demise. At some point you either accept death or you just keep pushing it back as you get older and older. I've accepted it.
Death is the great hope of all life; the desire to expend itself; to be used and consumed by its own longing for itself.
