After you have wept and grieved for your physical losses, cherish the functions and the life you have left.

Because if you've found meaning in your life, you don't want to go back. You want to go forward.

The best way to deal with that is to live in a fully conscious, compassionate, loving way. Don't wait until you're on your deathbed to recognize that this is the only way to live.

Learn how to live, and you'll know how to die; learn how to die, and you'll learn how to live.

When you're in bed, your dead.

It’s natural to die. The fact that we make such a big hullabaloo over it is all because we don’t see ourselves as part of nature. We think because we’re human we’re something above nature.
