Of course, the conscious mind cannot be aware of such important and critical inner decisions. It would break apart in most unpleasant circumstances, disintegrating before the whole self could make necessary preparations. I want to point out here that your friend Miss Callahan is taking an easier way out in one way, and a difficult way out in another. In the long run her way is a better one, however, than the manner chosen by those who prefer a so-called quick death.

You do not have to learn new things at the same time as you are struggling to exist in a strange environment. After death there is no instant struggle, where birth on your plane involves a pressing, agonizing attempt to get one’s bearings, and learn new patterns of behavior, when there is no time in your sense really to make any mistakes at all. The termination is always easier, believe it or not, than a beginning under such pressing circumstances as survival on a strange camouflage plane.
