“If you have lived your life, you will welcome death.  It will come like a rest, like a great sleep.  If you have peaked, climaxed in your life, then death is a beautiful rest, a benediction.  But if you have not lived, then of course death creates fear.  If you have not lived, then certainly death is going to take time from your hands, all future opportunities to live.  In the past you have not lived, and there is going to be no future: fear arises.  Fear arises not because of death but because of unlived life.” ~ Osho, The Art of Living and Dying
