Having just turned 31 this hits home. I appreciate the positivity he could find in the twilight of his days. I can't help but feel I may lack the courage to face death the same way. His focus on gratitude really does seem to match what I understand to be the best way to find joy in the often bleak life we find ourselves in. There is almost always someone or something to appreciate in our lives.

Liberate yourself from the attachments of the world. That is the only thing death forces us to face, the ultimate attachment, the attachment we have with our body/self/ego.
- diegoperini 6y agoI prefer to assume people may lie for everything but not for their soon to be happening death. If they fool me, I accept the consequences. The opposite, as in being cynical for even these kind of things, is much scarier and unhealthy for my mental state.
