The sublunary world is like a big tree, and people are like its fruits. And while they ripen on the branches, filling with juice, they will not fall, because they are firmly attached to the tree, being an integral part of it. But the fruits have ripened and now barely stay on the branches, which have sank to the ground under their weight. And of course, there will be someone who will help the tree: the fruits will be picked, and its branches will rise to the sky again. Or these fruits themselves will fall to the ground.
So the mature age of a person turns out to be the end of his life, his nose matures for years and his readiness for death.
