FEAR OF DEATHMourning by Harold M. Schulweis Fear -- not of death or dying but of not having lived. Fear -- not of suffering but of suffering for no cause. Fear -- not of extinction of life but of having left no trace upon the earth. Fear -- not of finitude but of being forgotten. Take heart -- make this a life not lived in vain. Take heart -- make this a life not lived for naught.
