Description
In medieval times, dying persons were seen as the wise ones, voyagers, valuable to the community in many ways. They provided an opportunity to those around them for service and spiritual growth. Today, however, our society is death-denying and views death as an equation to pain and suffering. It is a common practice in society today to avoid any knowledge of death, to treat death as if it were something unnatural, to be feared, shameful, or wrong.
