Short Communication

Abstract
Death and dying are an inevitable part of life, yet, not only Czech people perceive death as something intangible that is associated with mystery and often with pain and loneliness. For this reason, the Czechs do not like to talk about death, and death is still taboo. Therefore, we try to look at death differently, from the perspective of logo therapy and existential analysis which present human life as meaningful only if it has clear boundaries. By admitting the existence of these limits we allow a person to have meaningful content every day, to live it intensely and communicate spontaneously about its end, which is completely natural and inseparable from life. It is also interesting to compare the differences in perception between believers and non-believers.
