I guess I understand, Catherine, but I've simply seen too much death. I lost my sister in December at the age of 55, to non-smoker's lung cancer. I still haven't come to terms with it and deathfic only rubs salt in the wound at the present.

I've never been a fan of deathfic, though. I can't confer great meaning on death. Only life, and tragedy only leaves me with a feeling of tremendous pain and loss, and the feeling that something wonderful was wasted. That's probably one reason why I can't read it.

Earth is the insane asylum for the universe.
