Seeing death as the end of life is like seeing the horizon as the end of the ocean.To be what we are, and to become what we are capable of becoming is the only end of life.It is to be like God, and the soul following God will be like Him.The end of life is life. Life is action, the use of one's powers. And to use them to their height is our joy of duty.Happiness is not the end of life, character is.Man strives for glory, honor, fame, so that all the world may know his name. Amasses wealth by brain and hand. Becomes a power in the land. But when he nears the end of life and looks back over the years of strife. He finds that happiness depends on none of these but love of friends.
