I am so glad I came across your article. I had an inkling that life is transformation but the way you've written about it, by using Daoism as the basis for it, is so precise and succinct that it brings the clarity I need. I have been terrified to become lonely and die while alone, but after reading your article I am more optimistic about participating in the transformation that is inevitable.
Thank you for writing this Nathan (in case that's your name). My best wishes to you and your brother as you also participate in this transformative processes through life. :) Thanks again.
