Life cannot be without death,
death leading to life,
life leading to death,
something of a conversation.
Both are gifts
blending into one another.
There is no reason to deny breath
nor defy,
for one must breathe to live,
and even to give one's life,
that last breath,
one must live with death in mind.
And then in death
God grants life unbound.
Live life unto death
and life unto life.

(2 Corinthians 9:6-10, Psalm 112, John 12:24-25)
