Thank you for your article.

Death, for me,is the pin the pops our bubble of individuality, separateness, self, returning us back to the whole, which in fact we never left. Death has long been said to concentrate the mind.

Most people are willing to accept death, in my experience, they are just not sure of the manner, and that bothers them as it does Istvan. Yet we know not the day or time, except for those on death row, awaiting their executions. Which makes it hard to compose the mind towards acceptance, is it urgent or is there time, and if so, how much?

The Etruscan's said it best: “I was not, I was, I am not now, I do not care.”
