Alla fine

The italian word for "in the end" is "alla fine." This blog is about the end we all inevitably face, which is death. I'm a public health major, and my work is geared to prolong life as long as infinitely possible. However, I feel that the best approach to health is not focusing on longevity, but on quality of life. For the next 6 months, I will be writing about death in the news and explore scientific, cultural, religious and social perspectives on the subject. I believe that the more comfortable we are with death as an end result, the more we will appreciate the time we have with loved ones right now, and the more healthy we'll feel physically, spiritually, and mentally.
