 "How did so many years go by without me immortalizing so many that I love? Yet, the body's matter and energy are recycled. The energy  called "aché," the life force of an individual, never dies. It's recycled into the universe. The spirits of our ancestors are always with us, they become our "egun," who guide us and help us through life. 

The energy known as aché (pronounced ah-shay) is a spiritual life force in Yoruba-derived religions such as Santería in Cuba and Candomblé in Brazil.
