look at things much differently than I. A good friend of mine who is quite religious lost a friend of many years who had the same beliefs this past Tuesday. I would never make fun of another’s beliefs, I’m saying this from an outsider looking in. But if heaven and the forever after is what they say it is, shouldn’t one be happy for them and just be happy to have known them?

It’s all just a little difficult for me to understand. To my friend, my sincere sympathies. To his friend, may you rest in peace.

It wasn’t until today that I had known anyone personally dying from Covid. I didn’t know her well as she had been life time friends of my wife’s family, but we had met many times. She was always polite, always kind and she spoke her mind. Something I admire in a person.
In the death of anyone or anything, For Any Reason, I hope that their last sight was a pleasant one, their last sound heard was comforting, their last thought was of a better place.
Like I’ve said before many times, those that are still here have it the hardest. The one on the gurney has hopefully made their peace. I speak of personal experience.
Her family, her friends are lost and saddened beyond words though and it’s an extremely difficult thing to be a part of.
I wish for myself when the time comes, I was either disliked or not known well enough to cause this much grief for anyone.
Makes me wish to be a hermit on a hillside somewhere.
Rest in peace. You are missed.

a place in this Universe, where good isn’t rewarded or bragged on, but not given any thoughts because it’s the norm? Where pain and sorrow don’t exist. Where all aren’t respected for any particular reason other than they are living beings. All to be not only respected, but admired for their individual beauty be it mental, physical or both?
