Last up on the list of important questions from philosophy:
What is death?
“Death opens a door out of a little, dark room (that’s all the life we have known before it) into a great, real place where the true sun shines and we shall meet.” – CS Lewis
Recently a friend’s father passed away and I remembered this quote and today it seems appropriate again as a response to this question.
I don’t know if this definition of death is philosophically correct or not, but it sure seems good to me.
Anytime I am reminded of the finality of death, I am reminded that we aren’t guaranteed tomorrow.
Regardless of your view on death, one thing is for sure. We only get today. Tomorrow isn’t promised to us.
Yesterday was a great spring day reminder of making the most of the days we do have.
Looking at each day as a gift is such an uplifting way to spend your day.
As you look at your day today, think about how thankful you are for another day.
Make it a great day.
