Second Life

"e;Thinking is a bold and risky game,"e; writes Michel de Montaigne in 'Philosophizing means learning to die':In the midst of life, the author is confronted with a fatal diagnosis and the short time left to her. She looks back on her life, her great love and her family and tries to see our world in a new light in order to learn to die. In doing so, she realizes that true beauty is only visible in the light of impermanence and that life in all its depth can only be experienced in the face of death. She understands that in our universe, not only is everything connected to everything, but also that all life in all its forms and differences is worthy of life and love, interdependent and interrelated in life and in death.
