I make preparations both to live and to die every day, but with the emphasis on not dying, and on acting as if I was going to carry on living.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I am prepared to die, but there is no cause for which I am prepared to kill.
Here I am trying to live, or rather, I am trying to teach the death within me how to live.
If you are fully alive to the prospect of dying, you really start reprioritising your life.
I want to be thoroughly used up when I die, for the harder I work the more I live. I rejoice in life for its own sake.
I've been doing extremely dangerous activities for a long time, but I've been lucky enough to have survived so far. However, sooner or later we all die... and, if that's the case, I want to die doing what I love to do the most. That's how I view death.
I accept the dying process. I would just like to be as healthy as I possibly can at each step and phase along the way.
To live is to die.
To die is but to leave off dying and do the thing once for all.
None of us, in our culture of comfort, know how to prepare ourselves for dying, but that's what we should do every day. Every single day, we die a thousand deaths.
If you're not ready to die, then how can you live?
