In Mitch Albom's "Tuesdays with Morrie," the author explores the profound connection between accepting death and finding peace in life. The idea emphasizes that contemplating our mortality can lead to a sense of calm, allowing us to confront life's challenges more fully. When we acknowledge that death is inevitable, it opens the door to embrace the present moment.

Ultimately, by reconciling our fears about dying, we can shift our focus to making peace with our existence. This understanding empowers us to appreciate life’s fleeting nature and encourages us to live authentically. The journey of self-acceptance and fulfillment becomes attainable when we recognize that peace with death is an integral part of truly living.

People pontificate, "Suicide is selfishness." Career churchmen like Pater go a step further and call in a cowardly assault on the living. Oafs argue this specious line for varying reason: to evade fingers of blame, to impress one's audience with one's mental fiber, to vent anger, or just because one lacks the necessary suffering to sympathize. Cowardice is nothing to do with it - suicide takes considerable courage. Japanese have the right idea. No, what's selfish is to demand another to endure an intolerable existence, just to spare families, friends, and enemies a bit of soul-searching.
