FACE TO FACE WITH DEATH: SEARCHING FOR MEANING
Keywords:
Confrontación con la muerte, búsqueda de sentido, Facing death, search of meaningAbstract
Facing death, from a psychological point of view, will be always a experience which, sooner or later, every individual thinks of and has to face, because death is an implicit aspect in the very life of every human being. As a consequence, the ever present possibility of death and its facing may influence in some a way the psychological development of human beings from a very early age. Some of the questions we pose in this article are: ¿What are the consequences of the child to think and/or to face death? ¿How can this affect the meaning they give to their acts? ¿Since when does the human being start to worry about death explicitly? ¿How does this facing affect child’s life experience?. Key words: Facing death, search of meaning.
