What is death to you? Are you afraid of it? Are you ready for it? For most of us, death is the fear of the unknown. And for those of us who are left behind after the death of a loved one, the tears we cry are not for them – but for ourselves. But can we move away from that, smiling that our loved one has moved on? That is a tough one for most of us.
But why do we die? Why are we brought this world to live a life mostly full of struggles to then just…. die? This is probably one of the most powerful videos brought to you by Alan Watts on death. He explains “we live in a culture where it has been rubbed into us in every conceivable way that to die is a terrible thing. And that is a tremendous disease from which our culture in particular suffers.”
