Omnium

Now consider the rain. Each drop is an idividual entity, plummeting from it's birth in the clouds to it's inevitable death.
So do we also plummet from birth. A single drop represents a life, its awareness, its works, its ideals.
Consider a lake. As a drop of rain falls upon the lake it is no more, and yet it is. All that the drop was made of still exists, but it is no longer an individual, Instead it has become but a part of something greater. On the moment of impact, it becomes indistinguishable from the whole, and thus becomes the whole.
So for us is the moment of death. What most men fear in death is that lack of concious awareness which we name oblivion. We fear to become nothing. Instead we should have hope to become everything.
