The reaper has a way of sneaking in when least expected. But if I recognized his knock, I'd turn him away at the door, too. It is cool that you have come to the state where you can refuse to welcome him in, where once you would have gladly done so. Kudos!

I've always loved the imagery associated with death as a persona.
