Death Quote by Eknath Easwaran

“I like to remind my friends frequently how short life is. This is the important message of death: not a day to waste, not a day to quarrel, not a day to brood upon yourself. This is not losing the joy of life; this is gaining the joy of life.” quote by Eknath Easwaran — Download Open image
