Premium Member He Ordered

Asked Eternal God
Why certain people get mad at me?
He answered
“Tell only those people who want to believe
Make yourself vulnerable
Spoon feed them” (the people)

Ever Wondered About Death

Death is something we all fear
Yet, I’ve heard when you grow older the fear dissipates
Some think death is peaceful
Others think it’s their worst nightmare
Some say they will see the pearly gates open wide and God will be there waiting
Others say a fiery pit is in the midst of their future
Me, I don’t know
Could heaven and hell be a fabrication?
Or could they be truer than the sun?
Do each of us have a destiny nature follows?
So many questions…
Is it true that when you die your questions are answered?
Or is there bitter disappointment?
So many questions…
I guess the truth of the matter is only a deceased person can answer these questions
We are stuck in the dark until the final moments of our last breath.


Laurel and Hardy {epitaph}

American duo great humorists by far
                                      A famous act of our cinema history
                                     Hal Roach's most lucrative comedy stars
                                     Revived on our T.V's in movies or mysteries






 In Loving Memory Of
     Laurel And Hardy





Thanks Again To 
Sir Joseph Spence




Epitaph is a commemorative poem inscribed on a tombstone or mortuary 
monument written in praise of a deceased person.  Generally, epitaphs are 
small poems with rhyming lines written in reflection of the deceased person’s 
life.  They are not always somber and some are very humorous and witty.

He lived a life of such greatness
And did not die a thousand deaths
To all souls he brought happiness
Even as he breathed his last breath
