Death, should not be feared, for within it is contained all possibility, both good and bad. Only a pessimist or a man with twisted mind could imagine it as a horror. Moreover, many I have loved and whom in turn have loved me have gone before. How many greats from among our folk have already ventured on that journey? Do you doubt their ability, their love, that they would not clear the way of horrors for you? Maybe this is a reflection of your inaction here, a reflection of your love, that you judge them by your standards?
This is my fear of death, that I did not do what needed to be done. That I gave my time to pointless action and indulged in self gratification, while around me my world burned. That I would leave this world worse than I entered it and that because of this my children’s struggle was all the harder.
What does it matter where we are going, if we cannot take care of where we are? I ask you, what kind of man, would secure for himself a heaven while leaving a hell for his children?
This is our time, it is our duty to deliver for our children a better living. There can be no excuse, this is our birthright, the great cause of our age, to conquer hell so that our children may live in a heaven
Death should not be feared, it brings only darkness and peace, sweet release, from a life of fear and dread.
