Live so as not to fear death. For those who live well in the world, death is not frightening but sweet and precious.
St. Rose of Viterbo
When we live well– with our desire & goal being heaven alone– then death is a fulfillment of a life lived for Him, and an ending only of all struggle & hindrances to holiness. To one who lives for God, death is but the doorway to unending joy.
