Really? Death ends life, but why isn't it its event? Life and death are inextricably linked. After all, a "gift" is literally taken away. So, it's not a gift.
You (is it okay if I use "you"?:o) argued that life is not a gift, but a trial, because life ends in death. But that's not entirely logical.
Let me give an example.
Suppose a man meets a girl, a beautiful, intelligent, kind, and lovely girl, and he falls in love with her. She reciprocates, and they spend several wonderful years together, and then she falls out of love with him and leaves. And this man says, "Yes, those relationships weren't a gift! Because she left me in the end!" Is such a statement fair? Yes, the breakup was part of the relationship, and it was painful. But weren't the years of their relationship wonderful? Can something be called not good enough just because it "ended"?
Is a juicy, delicious piece of meat served for lunch bad just because you've already eaten it and regret that there isn't more?
Even if we continue the analogy with gifts that are given (although I think the author of the topic meant "life as a gift" in the sense of "life is wonderful"), is a music player that broke down from old age bad just because it's not eternal?
And, to be honest, I haven't met many people who aren't afraid of death. Yes, the "tools of knowledge" are not able to function, but the desire to live does not leave! Here, it's already a literal animal fear of death... in such moments, it's hard to think about knowledge. The only exception, perhaps, is people whose every day is filled with pain or something like that. They really want death.
