Coping with death

Death is a concept that people in today's society rather not hear, nor deal with. People get intimidated and scared when they are unexpectedly confronted with death either through friends, loved ones, or themselves personally. Each person is entitled to deal with death or news about a death in any way that makes them feel comfortable, as in Morrie's situation, where he feels the need to communicate with others about his personal experience with dying. …

…death than the other. Everything we do in our lives impacts the people around us and the way we treat them through out our life is reflected back on us when we need them the most. And what we receive from them should let us know if our life was indeed a successful and fulfilled life (Morrie's) or is just merely a life that is expected us to be lived by our own society (Ivan's).
