Death,
For any species,
Is an arduous experience.
In any world,
In any galaxy,
In any universe,
Death leaves a mark.
Rarely will a species, or a civilization,
Attempt to overcome the pain of
Death.
Some of those, celebrate Death
As an equilibrium in Life.
Death makes room for the new to come.
Other species attempt to transcend above terms such as
Life and Death;
They seek to live eternal,
Unwavering of time itself,
Illness, and pain.
Most civilizations, however,
Experience death as loss,
Pain,
And sorrow.
They see death as darkness, or a thief.
It is understandable, to be sure.
Still, life and death go above
Black and white terms.
Life can be joy, as it can be pain.
Death can be peace, as it can be agony.
Each person has a different experience with both.4
Each person feels a different way.
And this is where we lead you.
An insight into the moments we so dread.
See life. See death.
Neither hold fault.
