Death is often viewed as an unsettling disaster that we all fear. However, Death doesn’t have to be scary, it may be the end of a life, but it can also be the beginning of something new.
“We're all going to die, and we all know it. This can be both a burden and a blessing.” - (Julie Beck)
This quote by Julie Beck shows that we can look at death in one of two ways, we can see it as a burden, something awful and upsetting that we all dread, or we can see it as a positive, something that we are lucky to have, if we didn’t have death, we wouldn’t appreciate the time we spend living.
Death may be scary, but overall, it can be a beautiful thing. We as humans are now programmed to fear death because that’s how we as humans have evolved; we’ve grown and taught ourselves that death is something to be dreaded. We need to unlearn this and teach ourselves not to fear death because it doesn’t have to be as unsettling as we all think.
Dying makes us whole, it is something every living being must experience to fulfill our lives and make our lives complete. Which can be a beautiful way to look at life and death. To appreciate the time we spend living, and everything weve experienced during our lives, which will be different for each and every one of us. We live our individual lives, and when we leave this earth, we are finally whole, we have done everything we were meant to do, and achieved everything we were meant to achieve.
