Perfect for the Resurrection Season

"Once you accept your own death, all of a sudden you're free to live. You no longer care about your reputation. You no longer care except so far as your life can be used tactically to promote a cause you believe in."-Saul Alinsky

My new goal is to accept my death. After all, it is a reality that we all must face sooner or later in life, so why not just get it over with? I figure that if I end up in a warzone one of these days, having this mentality could be most beneficial for success. Which is better: a warrior that is only focused on self-survival, or a warrior that has accepted death and can focus on the mission at hand?

Perhaps the five stages of grief will be the process to use in this situation: Denial, Anger, Bargaining, Depression, and Acceptance. So, let the denial begin (and end quickly, I hope). For some reason this idea reminds me of another quote which I feel needs no introduction:
"It's only after we've lost everything that we're free to do anything."
