Current mood: happy, for once...
Subject: The meaning of life...
The other week, Hoov asked me what the meaning of life was to me...I told him that to me, life really has no meaning...instead, I believe the true mystery lies in death...what if life is only a "bridge" unto death...Imean, look at it...you come from nothing, and then return to nothing...ashes to ashes...We are so uneducated about death, it could be that death, or what is after it, is the true aspect of living, like I've heard before, "you only live once you're dead"...same with "you only live once," could it be that we aren't even living yet? That we haven't even dipped into the cup that is "life," that true splendor is after this...such as "eternal life" promised by God and Jesus, in the Bible and other holy manuscripts...What I'm talking about is not eternal life, but perhaps step two (or three, however you wish to look at it) of our journey to be with Him...

That brings up another subject...the subject of death...what will I be doing when my time comes? Well, I know for one I will not be cowering in a corner, afraid of Death's cold embrace...I will meet it, with arms open, no fears left in me...now, does that mean I'm going to go commit suicide right now? No...does it mean ever? No, becuase that would be cowering in the corner...I'm just saying that I'm not going to be in tears when it is near, not wimpering and saying "I don't want to die"...therefore, I will not be wasting my life waiting and fearing death...

Quote of the day:
"Daybreak
At the bottom of the lake
It's a hundred degrees I can't breathe
And I won't get out
'til I figure it out
Though I'm weak like I can't believe"

I thought Die Another Day was a movie of all action and no thought, but I thought this quote was interesting:

"It's only on the edge that we know who we really are."

Obsession with death will get you no where, though.
