Death is inevitable, of others and of self.
What you can not change you should not fear.
If death holds such certainty then it is life which we should be terrified of.

Because we can shape all aspects of it, and at the same time so easily squander every moment. The greatest fear lies at the end of life not in the act of dying, but looking back at the act of living. It is when you are judged for your life, for every moment by the cruelest arbiter, yourself.

For the story you chose to write and for the story you chose to leave behind.
For how you chose to define your life and your time upon this world.
