Summary

This quote suggests that one should approach the end of a love affair with a similar celebratory mindset as the people do in New Orleans when it comes to death. Rather than dwelling in sorrow and grief, it implies that one should embrace the opportunity to joyfully let go. Just like how they commemorate life in New Orleans, this perspective encourages the use of songs, laughter, dancing, and wine to mark the completion of a love affair, promoting an attitude of acceptance, liberation, and merriment in the face of endings.

I am not a religious man. I have not attended a service for many years. But I do believe in God. My own practice of religion, you could say, it a nonpractice. I personally feel that it's just as worthy on a weekend to rake the lawns of an elderly neighbor or to climb a mountain and marvel at the beauty of this land we live in as it is to sing hosannas or go to Mass. In other words, I think every many finds his own church- and not all of them have four walls - Judge Haig (Page 399)
