A slight mix of randomness

To die would be an awfully big adventure. For which is it? We are leaving and yet arriving? Into that great mystery as the veil of life no longer shadows our eyes and a lot of greater mysteries are answered. For in your final moments you shall lay wide eyed and smile knowingly, saying to yourself "Why yes. I suppose that answer does make the most sense." And that children is when you will realize the meaning of life.

This little bit was provided to you by copious amounts of tea and my good friend Josh sending me a single text saying: "Death is but one more great adventure." THis then took me to two places. One is Peter Pan where I always heard a line saying "to die would be an awfully big adventure". This is form the live Peter Pan movie from back in 2003. The it took em to a random thought I had where I thought up of the irony of how when people die, in their last moments, they figure out the meaning of life. The Bible Verse is when I figured out what the meaning of life is. Giving it all to God because if God is supposed to be your life then that makes Him the meaning of life. All life.

Matthew 22: 37-40 :37 Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’[c] 38 This is the first and greatest commandment. 39 And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ 40 All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.”
