Death-haunted. 2016 was that kind of year. I mean, you could probably say that about every year, right? All of us, haunted by death to one degree or another.
It is the great subject that is always floating around us. Or as the mystics tell us: Death is always on our left shoulder. Our constant companion.
And death has no mercy. So final. Complete. It's a hard nut to crack. No way around it. The losses mount up. Life rolls on. That's the story.
