A few people I have spoken to in the real world said they understand death after the grieving process of their own personal losses.
The person who has lost a parent will look at the person who just lost a parent with compassion and understanding. Understanding that they will come full circle and accept what has happened.
I am no longer afraid of death, for me, death has lost its sting. The human body is so fragile, it can die at the slightest thing. Disease, ageing and sometimes just a silent passing away are common themes.
Think about that loved one you are malicing. The one you have sworn to never forgive, the one that broke your heart, cheated you, etc, etc, etc, if you got a phone call that they dropped dead, will you have regrets?
If yes, pick up the phone and bridge that gap. Death is coming for us all and we are not promised tomorrow, all we have is NOW. Make it count.
On the 2nd of March, 2017, I lost my mother and it changed my life.
