There are times when we hear about people dying; friends who not so long ago were out and about, just like ourselves.
They had places they wanted to go / things they wanted to do / family they wanted to stay with etc. just like us.
Now they are no more a part of the living, human race.
The religious mind would say they are gone to heaven / united with the God who loves them.
For the family and friends left behind, this may not comfort them.
They have lost the presence of someone they love. A loving embrace will no longer be shared in this life.
Yet, God is good. The very absence of a loved one will help us to focus on the reality of life and death.
Have we a role to play? Have we found our purpose in life?
If so, let us be bold and courageous in fulfilling whatever is our destiny.
