Deep thought for the day
Deep thought for the day Was talking to a friend the other day. We got on the subject of, what if I was told I did not have long to live. Never an easy thought but one that does cross their mind from time to time. Do I believe in taking you own life? Yes and no. I think you have the right to decide for yourself. Myself I think only the guy upstairs should take you. I know, I know I hear the people out there screaming, what about the pain?? I understand the pain. I watched my Father die of cancer. It would have been dam easy for him to check out. He struggled. I watched him on good and bad days. I watched a lot of people come and see him. Men he had worked with for years. Community people, family and friends. All got a chance to say bye. I think that meant something to all that came. Two years ago I stood at the foot of my mothers bed and watched as she crossed over. In front of me was this woman I knew. Just not the body that was left. Two years before that day we almost lost her then. I am glad for the 2 extra years I got with her. We mended our relationship, which had been rocky. We talked about the future. We talked about the past. Myself I believe you fight. We all die. I have said before, I never expected to live this long. I just think that when my Creator wants me he knows where I am. Pain? perhaps, but then have we not all had some in out lifes? Hope for another sunrise. Hope for a friend or two, someone next to me to keep me warm. Someone to wish me off when I go. |
