Perhaps most of us feel that we could accept death for ourselves and for those we love if it did not often seem to come with such untimeliness. But we rebel when it so little considers our wishes or our readiness. But we may well ask ourselves when would we be willing to part with or to part from those we love And who is there among us whose judgment we would trust to measure out our lives Such decisions would be terrible for mere men to make. But fortunately we are spared making them fortunately they are made by wisdom higher than ours.

Even when death comes by events which seem unnecessary and avoidable. We must learn to accept what we cannot help.
