Why positive way of dying is so important? Who knows maybe transition between life and death is more important than life itself...

"Birth + Life + Death" So simple, so terrible! This is the cycle for all beings, animals do not seem to rebel against it but, we, human beings, can't help feeling, in our heart of hearts, that death is unfair.- You do not give your child a wonderful present and then take it away from him ruthlessly, do you?.- Death is a fact, the last fact of life in fact but, uncounsciously, we do not accept it.- Why?

Yes, yes, and I shall die in the age of 80, in a warm bed, with a couple of wine in my hand:)

Omar seems to have the proverbial mouse in his pocket. Quite a few of "we", us do accept the complete, natural cycle of life.
Striker is right, once you accept the hard choices and situations life becomes so much easier, satisfying.
