Our bodies are designed for birth and death; our brains are subconsciously in control. At birth, we instinctively take a breath, without being told; we're born to our role. Our bodies release endorphins at birth to ease our passage, dulling birthing pain. We arrive pre-programmed for life on Earth, and it's all possible thanks to the brain. When dying, your body knows what to do; you start to drink less, eat less, and sleep more. Your brain releases endorphins anew until your spirit is set free to soar. Death is beautiful; if you only knew of the exultation that awaits you.

Beautiful, Emile! I think of my sweet Mom. Though she never woke up, I found a tear at her eye when she passed. This did me good to read today. It has been 3 years.
