Life and death: putting it all together, sentence 2
Max says he is less scared of dying since talking about it, because a fear that is shared gets smaller; Ellie says different people believe different things about what happens after death, Christians resurrection and heaven, others rebirth, judgement and Paradise, or that life simply ends, and friends can respect each other across all of them.
Who acts: Max, fear, Ellie, different people, different things, life · What happens: say, be, die, talk, share, get · To what, where: fear, different things, each, all · Speech: someone speaks here
