Bravo!
This is an amazing piece which I thoroughly enjoyed! Too many of us perceive death as the final act when in fact it is the beginning; very well written; many blessings and thanks

As I have grown older death has come to be different things to me. A mixture of eastern and western thought on death is the best way I know to describe those thoughts. I dont think of my own death as much as I do others. I know it will happpen, I just let it "hover" on the way back burner. ~peace

Ciel, I have accompanied many to the brink and watched them cross over. That's what a nurse so often does--a holding of the hands, a closing of the eyelids, counting the last pulse and breaths. Most often it seems that death is welcomed as a friend bringing the wonderful gift of release.

For me to live is Christ and die is gain. I love life and whether it is here or the hereafter I am grateful for life. Blessings!
