thoughts on Death and Dying

Each of us is born with

A spirit
Sacred name
Clan or nation
Gifts or talents
Destiny in which we will face many challenges

Four stages in the journey of the human spirit

Birth
Life
Death
Afterlife


I would like to talk with my family about death mine and theirs.
I want it to be present as a possibility – known and spoken
Sure its scary but it should also not hit us as a complete surprise – it is a reality anytime anywhere
I would like the knowledge to be out in the open
     not locked away shoved in a back drawer of the mind...

I can embrace life and loved ones knowing our time is inevitably limited.
Enjoying truly what is. Now.
