When I think of Death, and I feel afraid (don't you? doesn't everybody?), I make myself focus on the present. If the past was "great" (as poet Kahlil Gibran said), the present is the "now", i.e. the only time we are experiencing in this very moment, the only time we can have a certain control upon. We can make it a happy moment or a sad one, according to our own decision to refuse it, cope with it, oppose it, welcome it or fight it. It is useless to ponder over a time (either past or future) that is anything but real. Therefore, let us try to live fully only our "today", because no-one knows if an actual tomorrow even exists.
