Close Your Eyes and Picture Death

March: On DeathMarch 11Today's reflection was inspired by another poem by Emily Dickinson, "Because I Could not Stop for Death."We all have our own perceptions of Death--our own beliefs of what it might look like, what our journey with it might be like.These perceptions are shaped by certain traditions and beliefs that we've been taught about Death from a young age.But have you slowed down to consider how you envision Death? How you might welcome it when it's time? Is this the perception and relationship you want? Should you reshape it?Reflection title: Close Your Eyes and Picture DeathCreative inspiration: Emily Dickinson, "Because I Could not Stop for Death"Reflection Question: How do I perceive Death? What tradition shapes my view of it, and should I question this and reshape it?
