This monograph is devoted to a philosophical exploration of the transformation of the fear of death and the acceptance of human finitude throughout the entire life course-from childhood to old age. Through autobiographical episodes, professional experience, and reflective musings, the author analyzes the psychological and existential forms of the perception of death across various age periods. The key idea is the quiet end as a gradual change in identity and a transition from a biological form of existence to new processes of mediated anthropology. The work combines elements of the philosophy of medicine, existential anthropology, and cultural gerontology, presenting an original model of the metaphysics of finitude in old age. The book argues that the path of development should not be a blind pursuit of technology, but rather a conscious choice based on humanistic principles. This is not a call to reject technology, but rather to use it in a thoughtful and ethically responsible manner. Ultimately, the content of this book is a unique philosophical manifesto on the necessity of actively shaping the future, rather than passively awaiting inevitable changes.
