It is difficult to accept death in this society because it is unfamiliar. In spite of the fact that it happens all the time, we never see it. – Elisabeth Kubler-Ross
People are like stained-glass windows.
They sparkle and shine when the sun is out,
but when the darkness sets in,
their true beauty is revealed only if there is a light from within. – Elisabeth Kubler-Ross
Its only when we truly know and understand that we have a limited time on earth – and that we have no way of knowing when our time is up, we will then begin to live each day to the fullest, as if it was the only one we had. – Elisabeth Kubler-Ross
I say to people who care for people who are dying, if you really love that person and want to help them, be with them when their end comes close. Sit with them – you dont even have to talk. You dont have to do anything but really be there with them. – Elisabeth Kubler-Ross
