Life and Death

What is the difference between life and death?
Is it really a river depicted in Pilgrims Progress? Is it the light at the end of the tunnel? Life is full of meaning for everyone. Family, friends, loved ones, maybe a wife or husband... simple little things like a hug that can turn your day around. Death? It is described as evil, dark, it snatches and steals and takes. Life is beautiful, Death is ugly. When you combine life with death you have life after death.. but that is a topic for another time. What is the difference between life and death?
Death is despair, life is joyous...
