Death

Nice light hearted topic for a saturday morning…

Not sure if others have had the same experiences as this, but there seems to be good proportion of people who cannot deal with death.  That might sound like a normal problem, yet when one is constantly coming across people who say they blame God for taking so and so too early, or that they cannot go to church because so and so had their funeral there it becomes a little strange.  It is almost as if there has been no education about the subject, people seem to speak of it with fear, something unnatural, yet to me the end of a life is as natural as the beginning of it.  Some people may die young, of disease or accident, perhaps some of these incidents should not have happened, yet they do.  Blaming God for a death, or being so scared about the prospects not to enter a church where a particular funeral has taken place is there way of not confronting the issue.  The only way to confront these issues is too it on a one to one basis as each case is completely different, yet it seems like i'm doing death all the time.  It would be nice to focus on life for once!!

  • Knocking off the corners

    Square Peg Round Hole? Well yes in a way, but after talking to a random number of people yesterday evening that was quite a common thought, and after tomorrow night’s sung evensong, there may be others thinking the same thing, but i’ll be happy with that! So then, what am I to do. Well it seems there are two choices. 1) Knock off the corners or 2) Change the shape of the hole watch this space
