About This Quote
The most painful part of the process of dying is the realization that everything we once loved is gone. We don’t get to keep anything, not even what we had when we were alive. When we realize this, we become so sad and filled with regret, we might even wish for death. But all of our pain goes away when we let go and stop fighting it.
Our suits remain standing and we feel a little better, but then we take them off and realize that our bodies are just a museum of the days we lived in. They hold all the memories of our past and we can’t change any of them. All we can do is let them go and be proud of who we once were.
