The Hour of Resignation

It’s the hour before the doctor will be here and perform your euthanasia, surrounded only by your children. The hour of resignation. If, at this last chapter, you will be able to find peace, I think that defines a life lived successfully.

‘The hour of registration’ shows the last knowledge being passed on to the people whom the man has shaped into who they are from the start of their lives, his children. His knowledge will live on in them. It’s a cycle that should never end. It is what defines families.
