What brings you to Death Cafe?

Like us all, death has long been an area of interest and I've seen how death drives much of what we do in life. The shortness of life. The fragility of life. The spontaneity of life and the realization that it can all end at any time.   


What would you like your legacy to be?

To be known as a pilgrim, explorer, seeker, walker, entrepreneur, lover. 


Thoughts for sharing:

from Queen Mab, Percy Bysshe Shelley

How wonderful is Death,
Death, and his brother Sleep!
One, pale as yonder waning moon
With lips of lurid blue;
The other, rosy as the morn
When throned on ocean’s wave
It blushes o’er the world;
Yet both so passing wonderful!
