“But sometimes they were so caught up in the business of studying and preparing for the afterlife, they failed to live. Death loomed so heavily in their minds that they stopped being able to see anything but this final mystery, this final aspect of life they couldn't understand, couldn't control. The fear of death can grow so large we let it keep us from living. Birth and rebirth. Chaos and order. Life and death. Balance.”
