Death cannot explain itself. The earnestness consists precisely in this, that the observer must explain it to himself.
Soren Kierkegaard...the greatest thing each person can do is to give himself to God utterly and unconditionally - weaknesses, fears, and all. For God loves obedience more than good intentions or second-best offerings, which are all too often made under the guise of weakness.
Soren Kierkegaard
