Unless you're flat out dead, you have to think of some other questions like: what's on the other side? It brings up issues of God, or no God. How does he play into this? Or he, or she, or it? How does it all play into this?
I know a man who gave up smoking, drinking, sex, and rich food. He was healthy right up to the day he killed himself.
I also had this artist friend who'd paint butterflies and things like that on my head.
