Physical death is the passing from one place to another.
It has often been called 'going home' and this is a correct statement in the truest sense. It is being born back to the place whence you came and it is as beautiful to us as the birth of a new baby is in your world to you. For the person passing, it is closing their eyes to a world you have no more use of. A completion of a task you have set yourself. It is fear of the unknown but a return to something known so well.
