Summary:Born on earth as a dying creature man sees his life as a process towards death. He is destined to die. Strictly speaking man alone can die. Everything else ceases to be. Man dies because he can consciously accept his death. To die is the last-decision a man as man can make. There lies the last possibility of his own self-realization.
