Quote for the day

“Human beings are beings that are going to die. Sorcerers firmly maintain that the only way to have a grip on our world, and on what we do in it, is by fully accepting that we are beings on the way to dying. Without this basic acceptance, our lives, our doings, and the world in which we live are unmanageable affairs."
Don Juan in The Active Side of Infinity by Carlos Castaneda

A hard thing to accept, in one's own case. You dying I can grasp (some of you more easily than others), but me?
