Reflections

All men were created equally. From birth, we have death for company.

Because I could not stop for Death,
He kindly stopped for me.
The Carriage held but just ourselves
And Immortality
~Emily Dickinson

To live is to peg ourselves to the wheel of time. In so saying, the ultimate freedom we can achieve would be in death, for only then are we free from time itself.
This, I believe, is an apt summary of Death and all she encompasses, as perceived and portrayed by the wise men who gave birth to these quotes I've read .

I cannot embrace Death. Not now. Perhaps it is true. I am too fearful of Life to embrace Death. And yet, I acknowledge the authority Death holds over my life. Isn't it futile, then, to deny my keeper? The sole solution, it seems, would be to embrace Life. It is high time I find my purpose in this world, in this time. Have you found yours?
