It was 1969 when famed Swiss psychiatrist, Elizabeth Kübler-Ross wrote: “If all of us would make an all-out effort to contemplate our own death, to deal with our anxieties surrounding the concept of our death… perhaps there could be less destructiveness around us.” At some stage through our lives, we realise that death is inevitable and contemplating our own death is something, which can leave a person feeling incredibly fearful. Fearful of the future, the unknown, what happens to us when we die, what happens to the family we leave behind. The idea of death can be something that humans grapple within a way that makes them ponder the very existence of life in a very existential way.
As we become older, thinking about our death somehow becomes easier, in some part it’s because it becomes more inevitable, but also because we realise that there are many aspects surrounding our living, which need to be finalised in dying. Some families have to face the conversation sooner than others do which is something that can come when least expected. The rights of passage and funeral rituals, which we observe, are part of how we contemplate our own death. These traditions, attached to the end of life, are meaningful and important for us to plan, not just for our own contemplation but to allow those left behind to process their grief.

Firstly, its not easy to find someone who you want to spend time on a date with, spending your hard-earned money on. Also dating is not easy to do in a worldwide pandemic. Looking at some of the online sites that are available, can leave you wondering if you perhaps knocked on the wrong door and thinking how soon can you leave and close that door behind you. Finding someone to physically go on a date with, well that is a trouble all on its own and its risky. Its risky because you don’t know what you are getting yourself into. Sometimes, if you are lucky enough to find someone that you find interesting, you might put yourself “out there” and try and spend time with them, only to be shot down in flames, gas light, ghosted or just plain manipulated or rejected outright.
