What you've shared with me touches me and I am continuously inspired by *your* "stubborn idealism" :-) Thank you for spreading your light and not hiding it.

Aging__illness causes one to reflect closely on the physical changes, and to also come to terms with the inevitable. I for one no longer fear that day, when I leave this plain, to journey to the next. For me, perhaps, that may be a day of greater joy, than some; not only for the release of all the suffering and ongoing pain; but also the wonder of so many spiritual experiences in my lifetime, and the absolute incredible curiosity that has arisen in late years, concerning those who have already crossed over, and their ability to communicate with us. Death is not an ending; as we perceive it, it is a new beginning of our sojourn elsewhere. Actually I very much dislike the words "Death" or "dying", as I feel they are very misleading in nature. There is no such thing really __that is to say; "my Dear beloved" is dead and gone forever__ideology. We are never__just dead and gone forever---as we __"always are"---just in another place and time. We are timeless, and of such wonder, we need to remember, we have more value, than the "dust" we seem, to be made of. Perhaps this is why, so many are devalued, and insecure---emotionally. If all we have to hold onto, is the thought that; from 'dust' we have come, and to dust we shall return___"not a bright prognosis" truly for anyone to be joyful about. :) However if we see ourselves as ever changing and of "The Almighty's" timeless creation, perhaps then__"Death" will have much less significance and dark forbidding thought.__and only be what it is, another part of life, and our adventurous journey. I so agree—I used to be so, against all reference to Death in any category.
