Later i found out that the driver, Dale Earnhardt Sr., had been killed and 2 days later started seeing all the memorial stickers for sale in the auto parts store and gas stations.<BR/><BR/>Yes it must be particular vicious seeing and hearing and seeing and hearing over and over again about the death of your father who was an icon in his chosen field getting killed earning his living. <BR/><BR/>Yet so it is with everyone who loses a loved one, maybe not with the same intensity and re-plays on TV but the loss is the same. For the famous it is no harder than the not known parent of a child gunned down in a drive by. Death is death.<BR/><BR/>I am glad for your spell of the day Sunday because that makes me neither fool nor charlatan, my lot in life is to never understand Algebra which gives me an out about knowing everything.<BR/><BR/>What I do know though is that to die is man's greatest fear yet in your own sacred text of the Bible it says to not fear it,(Hebrews) just like all other fears,when you overcome your fear of it, loses it's power over you and frees you from another of those prisons. Which in turn gives you more room to enjoy the life you have, doing what is your destiny to do. Death as we know it is nothing, if you believe that:<BR/><BR/>1) There is a creator of all things<BR/><BR/>2) that if that creator can make all of the galaxies then it would be a simple thing to make a single sperm cell in the womb of a woman<BR/><BR/>3) that the man we call Jesus died, truly died; dead, as in no more brain activity and heart function.<BR/><BR/>4) That that same man was brought back from the dead by the power of that creator (Luke last 2 chapters) and was still at that moment of flesh and bone having desire for food t prove to them he encountered that he yet lived.<BR/><BR/>5) That when that resurrection occurred death in all of it's putrid glory was absolutely defeated, it gave men the ability to overcome their single greatest fear.<BR/><BR/>Why is it that the more I try to stay away from death the closer it comes? But the less I think of it or even care about it the further it is away from me? JOB said "for that thing which I feared is come unto me and that thing of which I was afraid is happened" <BR/><BR/>So while I get the point, be wary lest ye die, I don't get the point (anymore) of fearing it. I fear no death, not My mothers nor any of the other 8 I knew last year who died.<BR/><BR/>Some by their own hand some by illness and, now even less fear my own that convinced that in death itself there is no power over the life that matters which is the life eternal. <BR/><BR/>I could wake up not breathing Like a friend of mine did this past year (not a suicide but a wee bit to much booze and pills)and then be at rest asleep until the mass resurrection. <BR/><BR/>Which is another reason to believe in #1 above for that too is a promise made to his creation. <BR/><BR/>As for my own death, I am ambivalent, I walk my road and believe I have reached the end where all that is left is my spending time here. God and I seeing new shit and revisiting old shit and not worrying about anything. (Of course i don't have boobs Cheri, but a swift kick in the testes may make a better referrance point back for that asshole than mace in the eyes because chances are he's already been maced.)<BR/><BR/>Simply said a 7am Monday morning, fear nothing. Breathe deep or shallow, eat a little or a lot, crawl to your pc if that is the only way you can get there (I will mention your name Jon when God and I speak together, sounds a lot like what old moms went through) Get the room with the am/fm radio or the color tv because in the end, this is not the end just the starting to what eventually goes on to forever, just do not fear the journey.<BR/><BR/>"'cept a seed die how would the crop grow"<BR/><BR/>Peace in your hearts and minds all of you<BR/><BR/>TWMmmoAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25133444.post-1168845116781608282007-01-15T02:11:00.000-05:002007-01-15T02:11:00.000-05:00The key to life is to not search for the key and t...The key to life is to not search for the key and to question everything.JR's Thumbprintshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10479324326541901987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25133444.post-1168824134621762162007-01-14T20:22:00.000-05:002007-01-14T20:22:00.000-05:00Jon,I couldn't agree more with your comment -- any...Jon,<BR/><BR/>I couldn't agree more with your comment -- any day above ground is a good day to quote one of my favorite movies.

I can stand and walk to the bathroom without falling over, but a side trip to the kitchen is out of the question. If I crawl I can get up to my office computer and post an unamusing little death poem. Poor me? Bull shit. Living in whatever condition is still living. And it's good.
