I miss Christoffer.

The Fellini quotation he had on his home page reminds me of

Der Tod ist kein Ereignis des Lebens. Den Tod erlebt man nicht.

Wenn man unter Ewigkeit nicht unendliche Zeitdauer, sondern Unzeitlichkeit versteht, dann lebt der ewig, der in der Gegenwart lebt.

Unser Leben ist ebenso endlos, wie unser Gesichtsfeld grenzenlos ist.

(Wittgenstein, Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus, 6.4311)

Let me try:

"Death is no life-experience -- we do not 'experience' death. When we think of eternity not as an endless span of time but rather as freedom from the nature of time, then we should say that whoever lives in the present lives forever. That is: our life is endless just as our field of vision is boundless."
