Strife GJ T H Y: li. .A L.i by DeAnna Vincent Death has been and always will be with us. lt is an essential part of human exis- tance. And because it is, it has always been a subject of deep concern to us. Since the dawn of humankind, the human mind has pondered death, searching for the answer to its mysteries. Death is not a catastrophic. destructive thing: in fact, we can see it as one ofthe most constructive, positive, and creative elements. The clinical term for death ls: the perma- nent cessation of all vital functions. The clini- cal term for birth is: the act of being barn, Death is the finai stage of growth, whereas birth, when life begins, is the first. Our modern society sees birth as a cause for celebration, lt sees death as a dreaded and unspeakable issue to be avoided at all possible times. People see death as a thing to be feared.
