Every day we find ourselves with the end of something because the most important quality of life is and always will be death.
The sciences and religions define different types of deaths such as spiritual, social, economic, political and even the death of God. However, humans face Death, physical death, that which marks the end of existence. The world continues without the one who has died because that is how cruel the world is ... it keeps turning.
Death, rather than a definition, is a process that usually begins with the decrease of oxygen supply to the brain and continues with neuronal death and later somatic death, that is, the total and irreversible cessation of all organs and systems of the organism, which cause damage to the cell membrane and the subsequent necrosis.
Death is dissected into many scientific explanations of all kinds, including trying to prove life after death with claims that are disputed by other scientists.
The fact of non-existence overwhelms us, it is natural, it is part of the programming of our brain not to think about our own death, [this is a defense mechanishm that when it is overlooked, the alarms go off since something does not work correctly ] (https://www.cronica.com.ar/suplementos/El-cerebro-y-el-acto-del-suicidio-20180121-0016.html). Yes, we have a filter that does not let us think about our own death in a realistic way. We know it is there, it will reach us ... we can talk about our funeral, even joke; but our brain neutralizes these deviations.
Religions are different philosophies that help us think about death in a positive way, in order to advance in our existence, since it is not the death of the body that torments us, it is the death of conscience ... the thought that Everything learned in this life will disappear with our death and our "I" will no longer exist, moves us.
In short, Death, thin or ethereal, has become a character in our lives. It has dedicated songs, TV series, paintings, dances, movies and even children's films ... nothing escapes the motivation Death causes.
That's why @Cervantes sits today in front of a glass of wine and presents:
This week for the Magazine Sainetes section, I asked the Cervantes friends some questions:
- What other meanings does death have for you?
- What does death mean to you in your dreams?
- If they could revive someone from death, which 3 famous characters would they be and why?
Hello, Steemit community! I think that more than one of you has heard the popular saying "Too much of anything is bad" as a warning that if you obsess over something, possibly this same thing will harm you in the future and in the world of videogames It is very easy to get to this point. The problem is that sometimes you don’t have time to regret, because the obsession can take you to the grave.
Death is a serious matter, we don’t know of anyone who has come back from death in modern times and has become a Youtuber to tell us about the afterlife ... There is a guy named Jesus who said he was resurrected, but that was more than two thousand years ago and the story is not 100% reliable. In other religions there are also resurrections or paradises with great parties and an eternity of luxury, but we have the same problem; No one has returned from death and told us what the matter is about.
According to official sources, Death will leave on vacation next week. The exact dates of her holiday period are unknown, but people close to her have stated that she will surely take a sabbatical year.
Writer Anne Rice has changed, and a lot. Her literary work could be divided into two stages, one dark and interesting and one "luminous" and boring. It is in the first stage in which we will concentrate, constituted basically by the first 5 books of the "Vampire Chronicles" and some parallel sagas such as the Lives of The Mayfair Witches. Only the first book will be addressed: "Interview with the vampire".
In the year 2014, the ABC website, revealed that each day, about 10,000 DECEASED PERSONS were tagged,received a birthday card or a FRIENDSHIP REQUEST on Facebook.
Can you die on the Internet?

Welcome once again to the music section. Today we will talk about death, but not only about that, but how to turn the arrival of death into a work of art.
Since this week the magazine team is talking about a topic as elementary as death, I decided to contribute with what I do best, playing music. For this occasion I chose a song from one of my favorite bands, Radiohead, which deals with the topic of letting go of a loved one and achieving peace about it.
We are all afraid of death, we defend ourselves against it. Even the economic, political and monetary systems.
Could it be that the monetary system also defends itself? And if that is true, will it be because it presages its death?
In short, dear readers, the best thing about death is that it reminds us that we are alive; Let's live with each cell of our body and prolong our life through our creations, recording every idea or dream in the blockchain.
Welcome Mrs. Death, we receive you as we receive a close relative, hoping that neither his hand is not so cold, nor his memory so trivial.
If nothing saves us from death, then let love saves us from life
(Pablo Neruda)

Thank you for being with us
