Was reading a free Jehovah Witness paper to day, and they ask why did god allow man to live for about 80 or 90 years,and then die, which is a very short period in the scale of things.

I didnt get around to reading the biblical explanations.

I just think its a wonderful amazing world where lots of things cannot be simply explained and to try to fully appreciate the people and creatures in it

although that pesky alligator better not show up again!

I remember when a college friend died years ago and she was only 25 really good looking girl it was so weird like she was sleeping

I know that I must be depressed, cause I imagine that I will just be put in a hole and rot.

Gravestones seem to be certain of eternal life.

I'd like that

I'd say it's deadly

I constantly forget about my mortality. Not sure if that is a good thing. The thought of mortality suddenly puts a lot of things into perspective.

What matters to people when they stare death in the face ? Probably all the things they took for granted .

To have gone through life, not to have loved and been loved, must be the worst.
