One's own death is not a pleasant subject to think about. I always tell Elena that the best way to die is to make beautiful love with someone that you care deeply for. Then you fall into a peaceful sleep where you never awaken again. Elena does not agree with me on this point.
Yesterday I was watching the new Cosmos series. They were talking about the famous British mathematician and astronomer from the 1600's Edmond Halley. Halley's comet is named after him. In his final moments of life, he drank a large glass of red wine. He then fell off into eternal sleep. Now that's another great way to leave this life!
