State of Death.
Michael Edwards said:
When I had my near death experience late last year I felt as if I was floating on clouds without any cares. When I was resuscitated I recalled the experience as a being something of extreme peace and ever since the idea of death doesn\'t phase me one bit.

This is a wonderful perspective to take on death. I like the idea of that... Death is the memory of you. Living on in people\'s minds. Rather comforting.

Hi Goldfinch60,
A great write.
The secret to life and longevity is don\'t think age live your life.
My dad is 81 and he thinks he\'s at the prime of his life well he thinks he\'s 21 at times.
Keep writing FineB

Death brings forth a sadness in those who new the newly passed with thoughts of both the suffering and the loving kindness which once occupied the shell before them.
In reality, the memory of one\'s life and living is within the living persons ability to generate worthy thought.

I would hate death to be meaning \'not really dead\', or to be some sort of suspended animation, especially in view of my organ donation poem.

A fine write Gold. Yes, happy memories are left .Though I don\'t know if I agree with it all. I mean, we all do physically die at some point - if it\'s a release from illness; or tragic accident; or natural old age; or whatever cause.

Goldfinch60,
This poem speaks to me in two ways. First, that even behind our most enthusiastic happy friends, we all have worries and fears. That it\'s best to always look beyond the surface. Even the most mundane of activities, such as drinking coffee, can worries rise to the surface.
Second, that such life and exuberance cannot be outdone by death itself.
Lovely words as always.

In later years friendship is worth its weight in gold - and that\'s all I would ask of any friendship should I lose my dear wife - no one will ever replace her. This is a touching write Andy.

It\'s what I heard on telly. I\'m going to look up the scheme online. You can too.
But - Doh! I only get attacked by an old lady in church - true! We sorted it out afterwards, that we both lost our place in the Communion queue. But most embarrassing - she got a bit vicious!

As we should all listen to those close confidences and worries of our loved ones. Sometimes confident reassurance is all that is required to return another to their former balance.
Kind, thoughtful and meaningful conversation - a tonic.
Now in leg pulling mode i am reading other things into this piece of yours today, so forgive me if i stretch things a little far. So this opportunistic lady you now drink coffee with has seen this tall good looking chap, still quite a catch, apparently on his own at home as is she. What whiles could she employ to share her later years with such a secure prize. Did it cross your mind LOL.

An aside maybe - I heard of the organ donation plan for next Spring. We shall all be opted-in, unless we opted out.
I started worrying about being dead, not the process of dying - I really did!
is the opting-in system controversial?

Your faith may have died in this poem. But to sing in the choir and to talk with friends... Brings such a sense of community and belonging, which I think find their rooting in Christian faith...
Free parking helps too! Great read as always.

GOOD MORNING UNCLE STEVE ! Thanks for a very stirring Piece of Classical Music to wake ME (B) up this MORNING (9am) and liven ME (A) up this EVENING (8pm) ! FIDO may censor the CAN CAN and say CAN*T CAN*T !
The GOOD BOOK says *Christians should meet together ~ wherever & whenever we can !* WHY ? Fellowship (talking with with FRIENDS) Worship (singing in the Choir) Familyship (good coffee & chocolate biscuits and a parking permit etc etc !). We go to Church (B in UK) & (A in NZ) for the above reasons but mainly to be filled with Gods HOLY SPIRIT ~ AMEN. Joyce & You & Your Family are in our Prayers 24/7 Amen !
Blessings & Peace to YOU & JOYCE

The thought to think in silence alone to gather around you the beliefs in which you trust and honour. Either way, you look at it you still succeed in the writings you proceed with.
