Being and Time - Heidegger

I am currently trying to read the passage of this book about death, but am finding it very hard to read, so am using guides from the internet to help understand it.

'For human beings, time comes to an end with our death. Therefore, if we want to understand what it means to be an authentic human being, then it is essential that we constantly project our lives onto the horizon of our death. This is what Heidegger famously calls "being-towards-death". If our being is finite, then an authentic human life can only be found by confronting finitude and trying to make a meaning out of the fact of our death. '

The notion of becoming is still something i am very interested even though i have put it on pause for now in terms of a 'project', it is still something i think about a great deal. Especially death, earlier on in the term I was looking at ways to surpass human existence and started to focus on death, questioning whether this was indeed our ultimate limitation or if in fact it was the point in which we transgressed our human selves, through becoming non-human, experiencing feelings in death we had never experienced as humans.Or whether the way to surpass ourselves was to accept death, when we had truly accepted death, it could no longer limit us, as surely something you are accepting of is not a limitation? Or maybe not etc.... I agree with Heidegger in the sense that we exist out of death, we need to 'constantly project our lives onto the horizon of our death' Being towards death is not morbid and it is through our acceptance of being finite that we become passionately aware of our freedom.  I have spent so long thinking about death negatively, however it is only being towards death that one can become the person who one truly is. I am keen to continue reading this part of the book using guides to help me understand further. Currently I'm not sure how it can physically lead into my practise, but I see how it can affect my everyday outlook, as it is letting me see a new way to see life with death, as the two are married, rather than being separate states.
