About This Quote
In this quote, the author, Julian of Norwich, is making a distinction between worldly people who find life pointless and those who find meaning in life. She makes a comparison between the two, saying that the worldly people will always live half-hearted while the meaning people believe their lives will be fulfilled in death. The worldly people want to make it while they can and give up on their lives when they feel like they've run out of chances. They live in fear and rather than try to make it work, they do everything possible to avoid failure.
They fear falling and then falling again because that means they'll be stuck. The worldly people never allowed doubt to create distances between them and their harvest time. That is also their decision.
