Death is the surest thing about life.

Job said, “My day are swifter than a waver’s shuttle.”
James said, “Whereas ye know what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapor that appeareth for a little time and then vanisheth away.”
We should live each day as it were our last, indeed it very well may be.
