You know what I've missed about your lists?  The fun connections I make while reading them.  I love making connections with what you write down and think up story lines as I go.  Strange?  Perhaps, but so delightfully fun to do!

And those quotes you added - well, they got me thinking pretty darn hard - and they're right.  We fear so much of going without a light that we lose ourselves within the confusion - and thus become even more scared of losing ourselves.  How complicated, wise, and gratifying to read for both!

One of your best lists ... and I loved those quotes... very poignant and full of wisdom.

Oh dear , we were talking about what needs to be done one day to come

and I made the statement that I just want my ashes chucked out...I meant to say scattered but the nice vocabulary words didn't happen.

Great post, OTA.  I like to watch you think in your list making. 
I also love reading quotes because, quotes are windows to the soul of the person who originally said them.

No, the 1st two are both great quotes.

Kushner has it right – we fear not living our life to the fullest.

Dust In The Wind, All we are is dust in the wind... love that sentiment. It's not how we end up, it's what we do with the time we are given~ Thanks for the quotes!

I didn't care for the list too much, but I absolutely loved the quote from Norman Cousins.
