I deal with death on a daily basis, I've seen people take their last breathe.. and seen the light leave their eyes so this doesn't faze me.
But it is a beautiful animation.
Posted by ruscovaxxAnyone you've known personally or loved dearly?Posted by GemitatiI remember the first time I witnessed a death. I had to care for a 103 year old woman, she was stiff as a board so I had to reposition her every hour. When I began my shift with her she would call out and say help me, over and over again. When she mottled up to her neck I sat with her and held her hand, she gasped for air and occasional stopped breathing for 3/4 seconds the most and her eyes glazed over.. they were devoid of light. I honestly didn't feel anything. As time went on and I dealt with younger patients still nothing, death is a natural part of life, we can't escape it it's inevitable so it's better to accept it when there's nothing you can do than become emotional over it.Posted by ruscovaxxHospice?

Posted by ruscovaxxNo, it's interesting, in a way-- my mom's beenPosted by MontgomeryI worked in a care home for 2 years before working in the icu, I grew bonds with some of these older people.. met their families, heard their stories but it still never bugged me when they passed on.Posted by ruscovaxxAnyone you've known personally or loved dearly?Posted by GemitatiI remember the first time I witnessed a death.

And by dearly, I mean immediate family or close
friend... like that.
Now if my mom or close friends did... I don't know. I'd hope I'd feel some sort of anguish. If I didn't then my career really molded me into something awful.click to expand

I don't feel comforted tbh
Posted by MontgomeryNot quite the same. Death waited because it wasn't the right time; when the deer's time came, it embraced the end.Posted by brianafayRomanticizing death.

Like people romanticize the tragic life of Sylvia

your head in an oven.click to expand

That isn't romanticizing death as much as it is making peace with it.click to expand
Posted by bittercupcakeAre you an air sign? Aqua maybe?
I must be cold AF...
Liked the portrayal of death though...very cute
Posted by MontgomeryThat's why I love art so much. The way I see it is exactly what the title says "The life of death."Posted by sultrykittyThis is art, and therefore... subjective.Posted by MontgomeryNot quite the same.

So, Capricorn-pants, there really isn't a right or a wrong.
However...
It looks like the poor dear/deer was haunted by death
(why was he hanging out that long if it wasn't time...
he didn't do that to everyone else), who overshadowed
everything she did, until she got used to the shadow
and finally embraced it.
Who knew deer had demons?click to expand
