THE NARROWS

In some cultures, death is viewed as a part of life, with little separating birth from death. Each is part of the continuum of life. One announces the beginning and the other heralds the end. Each is a momentous occasion fraught with uncertainty, yet, we ascribe as much fear to death as we imbue birth with joy. Who is to say that death does not represent a birth of sorts? Perhaps it should be regarded with as much anticipation as we bring to birth. As Morris Joseph wrote “Death is not the cessation of life, but an incident in it. It is but the “narrows,” to use the Ps.almist's striking expression, through which the soul passes on its fateful voyage.” For many, death is perceived as a passageway to something more, to a healing beyond the suffering that we all come to know when we mature and experience life's demands and challenges.

“Death not merely ends life, it also bestows upon it a silent completeness, snatched from the hazardous flux to which all things human are subject. ”

~ Elizabeth Arden
