In general, in our culture and society little is said about death. What we hope and usually project is that the end of life will come in an advanced age, in old age, peacefully, having achieved the illusions we have, without pending "things", in a sweet and serene way.

 We, normally imagine a life projection that goes through birth, development, growth, with the possibility of loving, of being loved, of becoming adults, of maturing and aging until death comes.
