But such people are no saints.
"Suzuki’s relationship with his children was less than ideal. Despite being thought of as quiet, soft spoken and kind by his Japanese parishioners, at home he often scolded his oldest daughter Yasuko quite harshly. Suzuki’s relationship with his son Hoitsu was sometimes difficult. Hoitsu would run from his father, at times frightened by “the fierce look in his eyes.” His daughter Omi committed suicide after nine years in a mental hospital. Suzuki, living in America at the time, did not attend her funeral, despite pleas from his son Hoitsu, living in Japan. Suzuki waited six months to tell his other son, who lived across the street from the SFZC, that his sister was dead."

Good to know. That goes along with being alive & getting up each day.
Why would anyone fear death? From the time were old enough to understand that death is inevitable, fear of death should be the least of our concerns. Living the best life we can should be the goal.

So far I'm still participating in that goal.
