Being introduced to the idea that death meant dying into God and living has been psychologically beneficial, not on my own behalf but those who I've lost and will lose, human and animal. I don't apologize for that, I happen to find it persuasive.
I've seen lots of people get to be in their 90s, now, I haven't seen many of them who enjoyed it. I'm not looking forward to it.
