From that obituary, this line resonates:

Those who live in the shadow of death are often those who live most.

That quote resonates a lot with me.

My lowest points are when life becomes too easy. When I start to miss the point of living.

I quit my job and moved to a new country because I was becoming complacent, repeating the same thing every day.

It's the moments closest to death when we are truely alive. Whether it's being struck by a disease, as Stephen Hawking tragically was all those many years ago, or climbing a mountain (and in my cause, getting stuck).
