We've recently had our shortest day ever on earth. I know no one is paying attention, ya know to the important stuff.
It brought about a conversation about death. Death is one of my favorite topics to discuss when talking to mates'.
Why?
When you bring up a discussion about death, the conversation gets real. It forces people to really put life into prospective. Think about it, You can't really bullshit the conversation, you have to either come real or run away.
Like when you think about it we hold on to loved ones after they pass on, for nothing but our own selfish reasoning. We mourn cause we'll miss them so much, how they treated us, and what they did or provided for us. Gone too soon? because they didn't get the chance to fulfill the dream we had for their life, or didn't get to tap the potential we put on them.
One of my favorite answers to mourners is, Death is not the punishment, it's the reward! While it may not be very comforting its just truth.
