Friday of Week 8 in Ordinary Time

 

 

 

 

The end of all things is at hand.
Therefore be self controlled and sober minded.
Our life runs out in shifting sand.
Whether bloody minded or kind hearted.

I dreamt, drowning, I was trying to clamber onto a boat.
And the only crew, I found there, on the deck, was a corpse.
What a shock, how could I keep afloat.
And was this, I seeing, my own corpse.

Why do we obsess about our death.
Yes the body will decay and die.
But our consciousness, our soul will not know death.
This is the joyful truth and no legend or lie.

So we will surely  live.
And spiritually thrive.

….

Why do we worry
The body dies the soul lives
That’s all that matter
