About This Quote
Death is a terrible thing and we all want to avoid it. However, we all die and we all will die. The thought of dying is one of the most frightening things we can imagine, but we must learn to embrace death if we are to live life to its fullest. To live life with such fear of death would be like living life in a prison, where our freedom is taken away from us every day.
Instead, we must learn that life does indeed come to an end and that death is nothing more than a transition into something greater. If we feel like we’re losing our best years, learning how to live and grow old fully and happily is what will make all of our lives worth living.
