Life is Like a Sea Voyage

“Now, the prospect of death overshadows all others for me. I am like a man on a sea voyage nearing his destination. When I embarked, I worried about having a cabin with a porthole, whether I should be asked to sit at the captain’s table, who were the more attractive and important passengers. All such considerations become pointless, however, when I shall soon be disembarking.” [Ian Hunter, ed., Things Past (New York: Morrow, 1979), p. 1 (as quoted in “Grounded, Rooted, Established, and Settled,” Neal A. Maxwell, September 15, 1981 BYU Devotional).
