Death defines the continuum called life. Time and space affects the way I choose to recognize, interpret and experience the sting of death… or is it, a sting called death.
Death- it is the thread and needle that intricately stitches the vital data to design the outcome of our desires and experiences. Like mistakes, let me stay connected with the moment’s lessons and helps me figure out what living means. It summons relief, sadness, grief, euphoria, questions, answers, numbness, disappointment, joy, projection, retrospection, introspection, could haves, should haves, ad infinitum… that’s death… and that’s certainty, uncertainty of goodbyes, hellos, hugs, life, endings, beginning, endings and beginnings and these are part of everyday life. So what exactly is death and do I really die? How many times have I died and rose again while I am still alive or still have breath? Maybe I am already dead and waiting patiently for the big rapture of ascension. May be I am doing so right now as I continue to bring my subconscious self into full realm so I can know myself as I ought to have and ought to know.
Maybe that is what Jesus actually experienced…. Maybe Jesus never had to carry any heavy burdens and certainly if he had, he had helpers to help ease the load. Even then he exacerbated when the going got rough to the point that he pleaded to God to find another way. Then so can I! Like Ecclesiastes and Job and Jesus, I can ask him to leave me alone so I can enjoy life for even a little while!
Theology, death, life, lessons…they are everywhere and very experiential, very real and very personal!
Oh well that is my own interpretation of this journey called theology…death…life- full circle!
