GLOSSARY: D is for "death"

I would like this to be a thread of definitions - not debates, not proselytizing - simply definitions - your own definition. Simply and concisely define what the word "death" means to you. If you use a quotation, then include your own interpretation of that quotation.

AND

Give an example or two of what that would look like in ordinary life.

Death. An arbitrary and illusory demarcation of "the end" of something. There is no birth, there is no death; there is only change and transformation. Whenever something is lost, something else is gained.

Perhaps a better way of looking at it is that humans label something as "death" when they feel a sense of loss? I don't know.

Death is a New Beginning.

In ordinary life Death is an End. We tend to focus on the fact that something or someone is gone; rather than focus on what happens next. That's normal, it is common for us to expect the worst.
