Yesterday a friend lost his dad to cancer. The dad was in his 80’s and lived a good life.
Some sorrowful (even regretful) posts surfaced on Facebook. This led to hours of personal reflection on, “why is death earmarked for sadness, loss, and pain”?
i mean, why are those things common when the person is 70, 80, even 90+?
In all those decades, haven’t mountains of good memories accumulated?
i can’t help but wonder why we don’t embrace death as the beginning of something else, and, as the final scene in a wonderful movie.
Should Can joy replace sorrow?
