Episode 219: Accepting the Inevitable Early

I had a strangely soothing thought today:What if I were dead?I suppose that only those Who have suffered great loss will understand.While you’re alive,There is always the possibility That you might do something moreTo change the outcome.But once you’re dead, That’s the end of it.Once you’re dead,You must accept that what you were is enough.And there is great comfort in that.Not only that, But once you’re dead,You lose the ability to change things through your words, your actions.Prayer and spiritual connectionBecomes your only linkTo this world.So for oneWho hasn’t given up on this worldBut who has been estranged from those he lovesIt might help to accept the inevitable early.
