I try to remind myself that they lived and died doing what they loved. There is a greatness in that. These sorts of individuals take great risks to accomplish great things, and by doing so, they inspire the rest of us. I believe people like this keep the human spirit of adventure and exploration alive, and that's what makes us great as a species. It reminds me of the amazing things we can do.
It's always sad to lose people, and so I try to remind myself of what they've given the world in their short time here, and the legacy of endeavor and courage that they leave behind.
Thanks, guys!
