Everything is relative, even death

When someone dies at a young age, we feel sorrow
When someone dies at an old age
we try to accept it
It is received more gently
Both socially and personally, it tends to be that way

Death is not accepted the same way by everyone
nor is it perceived the same

In the end, the fear and dread of death
might be something humans have created

Even if instinctive fear cannot be avoided
compared to now, it can be accepted
much, much less fearfully
I think this is a hint, a clue, or a basis for an answer
that how we perceive death is truly important

In fact, living beings try to avoid death
not because they fear it
but because acting that way increases
the probability of survival
Those that tried to avoid it are the ones that have survived until now

But in the end, all living things die
Rather than living only by instinct
there is also a need to try
to accept this natural course rationally

In other words, if all human standards are relative
since I am human
I may not be able to completely escape it
but being relative ultimately means
that it is not absolute
