Yalom Fred Branfman: How might the knowledge of death enrich our lives? Yalom: What comes to mind right now is a friend of mine who's so caught up in the rat race for success in his field that he's never taken a sabbatical. The university is willing to give him a year off and he has not taken it. It's insane. In talking with him, I've pushed him to look at the fact that he is not going to have his children at home forever, and to think about what an experience like a sabbatical would mean for him and them. I mean, I've been at Stanford all these years, and I can't remember one year from the next—they all sort of blur together. But I spent a year in London, another year at Oxford and another year in Paris. And every day of those years stands out for me and was very rich for my children. Fred Branfman: But what if your friend said he enjoyed his work, that working hard is his core? Yalom: You know, I've never heard anyone near death say—and I've never heard of anyone who's ever known anyone near death say—"I wish I had spent more time at work." |
