When we choose to live with an understanding and acceptance of our mortality, life becomes infused with immediacy and meaning. Although none of us know what will come next or when we will take our last breath, we do have a great deal of control over what we choose to do with the time we have. Preparing for whatever may come next in our lives; be it grief or joy, sickness or health, or environmental crisis is not only a matter of health and life insurance. 

We can enrich our living by examining our dying. When we are brave enough to "practice" dying before our natural death we can not only reduce the worry and fear  our life decisions become transformed with heightened awareness.
