@intrepidhero These thoughts are so insightful, thank you.

Perhaps related: someone once asked me how I deal with the fact that I will die one day. (Based on some Buddhist philosophy,) I said that if I'm doing it right, as I get older, the sense of "me" will grow into and include my children, and my extended family, and my community, until it doesn't seem like such a loss when one part of "me"--this body--is no longer.

I still believe that. It is very reassuring, in an honest sort of way, to consider the reality that the inner separation and outer separation is a sort of illusion.
