Coming and Going

Life is too short for the living. Death is too long for the dead. I know for I’ve been in both places and heard what the residents said. You may not believe when you’re living that death has a birthday as well, but when you are coming or going it may still be to heaven or hell. Most folks I find prefer living, it easier there to decide what pathways to take while you’re able to influence which way you ride. Sometimes while dead you’re in turmoil not knowing just where you should go, for echoes of past lives still follow with the fruits of the seeds that you sow. In life should the seeds that we planted be buried in shared love and care we’ll carry these with us forever and help us for death to prepare. For the heaven or hell that we live in is decided by you not by fate, and it matters not whether you’re living or slipped once again through death’s gate. Life is too short for the living. Death is too long for the dead. I know for I’ve been in both places and seen the best pathways to tread. Ivor G Davies
