Now that I am a bit more connect to what is going on around me. I'm so much worried about how I will face death but I am now kind of worried about how I will handle death of someone close to me. I think I will really feel it now. I lost my parents and grandmothers within a 4 year period a long time ago and well I was young, immature, and unaware of how sacred this process is. Prior to this period I had never experience death before. I've recently read about some really interesting rituals that different cultures embrace during this transition. Mitch Album has written some really good stories related to death. IDK...I think modern society focuses too much on trying to beat death and not enough on facing this natural process in a way that brings a sense of healing, closure, and celebration for the times well lived.
