Most people have an aversion to looking in the direction of dying.
The future inexorably comes, and if I'm not facing it, I'm backing into it. Many people see the past and all its problems and they don't want to look at the past either. The present isn't so hot, what with the diminishments, the cataract operations, the prostate thing, and so on. And most of the time it's not so bad.
