Death

oh lordy, trouble so hard
oh lordy, trouble so hard,
don't nobody know my troubles but God
don't nobody know my troubles but God

went down the hill, the other day
my soul got happy and stayed all day

oh lordy...

~moby



The first time I heard a song by Moby was when I saw the video of him in a nursing home as an old man. Watching the TV (with the plastic broken angel on top) with the other old people.

Scenes of him as a young man dancing and moving.

A sadness on his face and something that glimmered a hope.

And then the tunnel, the light, the angel carrying him.



I accept the reality that youth fades, time goes on, and in a few more decades or so I will die. (or get hit by a truck at anytime...or something that will kill me)

I will pass on from this world. I know that is a fact of life.

Facing the reality of my death has helped me be more into now and today. It's been a relief.

It has given me freedom from worrying in some lie to myself about not expecting trouble, pain, or my own death.

I go today and dance with or around with whatever comes.

My Christian faith in my life after death is a hope I look forward to living one day.

A few random thoughts
