to never fear death

Perhaps fear makes us feel more alive. When we overcome it we are empowered. I like your Senryu.

birth, to those who dare...... :) yes! for excluding the natural birth, we can always go on "rebirth" on the stages of life if we really dare to go through it....... "never fear death"... a challenging remark.. :) I LOve it.. kuDOS!!!! +OLIVE_ELOI
