A Sentence

I was reading this book by a author that I had never read before.  I read this sentence and it intrigued me.
The sentence was,"From the day we're born we should all be afraid, but not of dying."  I thought that is
right.  From the day we're born. we have to face life and life is hard.  This life has happiness but it also
has sorrow, pain and loniness.  There are hard things to face in this life but if you're God's child, death is
Heaven.  No more sorrow, grief, or pain.  I don't know what the author meant when he wrote that sentence but it is true.
