About this Quote

This quote by Margaret Mahy speaks with the inevitability of death and the requirement to come to terms with it. Death is a part of life, and it is something that all humans must deal with eventually. Mahy is recommending that it is necessary to accept this reality and to come to terms with it, instead of trying to prevent it or deny its presence. She is also stressing the importance of not being too repeated in our thoughts and actions when it concerns death, as it can be a difficult and emotionally draining experience. By acknowledging death and accepting it as part of the human experience, we can much better prepare ourselves for the scenario of our own death.
