the meso-american cosmology states that a person's death (ie, type, time, place of etc) is determined by their own and the people around them's attachment to their life. young people die in violent, bloody accidents and things because both they and the people who know them, or even just those strangers who come across the body and know that young folks are supposed to live and not die are therefore attached to the person's life even though they do not know them, are too attached to the concept of life, whereas old folks die peacefully in their sleep because both the old folks and ourselves have become comfortable and accepting of their inevitable deaths...
