Brooke TaylorThere is just as much beauty in birth as there is in death, and it changes our lives just the same. They both add things to us and take things away." Pg. 155 Undone
About This Quote
It has been said that there are 4 stages of life: Infancy, childhood, adolescence and adulthood. Maybe there are more, but these are the ones that most people have to go through. When you look at it this way, it makes sense why some think that there is no beauty in death. It just means that you have to move on to some other stage of life, which might not even exist anymore.
Death is like the end of a chapter in your life book. You cannot change what has already happened or undo things that have already happened. But what if you could relive your life again? What if you could begin at the very beginning?
