The accumulation of material wealth and large bank accounts mean nothing at the moment of death. In actuality, the entirety of life is a preparation for dying.

Living totally in the present moment allows you to create a fulfilled life and to face your impending death openly and with dignity.

The realization that death can arrive at any moment allows you to grow in wisdom and compassion; you have to begin to accept and appreciate everyday living as sacred.

You understand the truth of impermanence and that in the end, you can really possess nothing. Death is the final equalizer.

Facing death typically enables you to align your priorities. Spiritual and psychological matters become of interest and can enjoy your life thoroughly as a gift.
