On Death and Dying

With rare exception (those that die very young), we all get to walk with others through the emotional land mine of a loved ones death. In times of war, fathers bury sons, but in times of peace, sons bury fathers (no gender intended). Either way, the trauma remains. If we’re lucky we come to an understanding early in life that death and dying is to be looked upon primarily as a “transition“.

If we realize that we didn’t begin the journey here on earth in this physical body, and that the journey doesn’t end when our physical bodies no longer work, then we’re making progress to accepting the transition as not something to be feared as much as it an achievement to celebrate! We go from birth to death to birth- just in a little different state.

I have an acquaintence who doctors say has but a few weeks to live.

Having lost a wife, son, mother, and father, I know something about the process and concept of death. Two went unexpectedly in what’s termed an accident while two went after prolonged illnesses. However things go, suddenly, or over a long period of time, some thing never change. So, what do I tell this person that’s on death bed? Nothing is needful except my love.

We just need to BE and to acknowledge the transition. People who know this life is coming to an end just want someone there. I’ve found that one of the greatest fears is dying ALONE! No one should have to experience such a situation. We all have a need to be accepted and affirmed.

One day wew will ALL see that bright white light that so many NDE’s speak about and sense. One day we will ALL be re-united and we will remember that which we’ve now forgotten. We have a home- an eternal home. Needlessly prolonging the transition process can only bring more pain, more agony. Thus we need to be careful of how we pray. Beside, praying against the wishes of God is such a waste of time!

I know!

He he he. They should get Cookie Monster to do the vocals.

That was awesome! I needed a good laugh.

BTW, Cookie Monster would be the perfect vocalist for their band. I think he would sound a lot like Chris Barnes from Cannibal Corpse. Check out the resemblence:
