"No do-overs!"

Usher in grief with warmth! What is most important to those who are closer to death? Comfort. Feeling unburdened, and unburdening to those they love. Existential peace. A sense of wonderment, spirituality.

Make space to allow life to play itself all the way out. You can always find a shock of beauty or meaning in what life you have left. If we love such moments ferociously, then maybe we can learn to live well; not in spite of death, but because of it. Let death be what takes us, not lack of imagination.
