"死ぬというのは風の中で裸になり太陽に溶けることではないか"
— Khalil Gibran

Simplified Meaning:
This quote suggests that dying is like standing without any protection in the blowing wind and then becoming one with the sun. It compares death to shedding all your layers and becoming part of something greater and more eternal. Think of how a leaf falls from a tree in autumn and eventually turns into soil, helping other plants grow. Just like the leaf, when a person dies, they leave their physical body behind and their essence or spirit merges with the universe. This idea can help people feel less afraid of death, seeing it as a natural and beautiful transformation rather than an ending. By understanding this, someone might live more fully, appreciating the present and not fearing the future.
