Summary

This quote expresses that human love is what allows us to experience deep pain and confusion in the face of death. As human beings, we desire continuity and the ability to create new life, which contrasts starkly with the finality of death. We long for the perpetuation of life through our children, the warmth of sunlight, and the very act of breathing. Our yearning for immortality lies at the core of our love, making death a challenging concept to reconcile with.
