‘Most certainly I tell you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains by itself alone. But if it dies, it bears much fruit’.
This is the quote from the Gospel (St John 12:24) Dostoevsky chose for the incipit of The Brothers Karamazov. It’s one of my favorite quotes as well.
Death is the beginning of new life as life ends in death. Don’t be afraid of this simple truth but embrace it.
Easter is a story that reveals this truth but you come across it every day. Today I found it reading The Great Convergence by Kishore Mahbubani, in a online interview with Christian Busch, co-founder of Sandbox.
When I fell dry and disillusioned I let death take over me to reborn with hope and new ideas.
