For what is it to die but to stand naked in the wind and to melt into the sun?
And what is it to cease breathing but to free the breath from its restless tides, that it may rise and expand and seek God unencumbered?

And when the earth shal claim your limbs, then shall you truly dance.
Khalil Gibran
