Early Death

"The wise prophet has said that no one who dies and dismounts from the steed of the body
Feels grief on account of departure and death, but only grieves because of having failed in good works, and missed opportunities.
In truth, every one that dies wishes that the departure to his destination had been earlier:
If he be wicked, in order that his wickedness might have been less; and if devout, in order that he might have come home sooner...
Tears were trickling to the earth: in every drop were contained a hundred answers.
Sincere weeping touches the souls of all, so that it makes even the sky and heaven to weep."

Rumi (Vol. 5 604-628)
