I always felt the drama on COVID-19 was a bit overdone. It is a disease to be concerned about, but it is no small-pox, black-death nor ‘Spanish’ flu. Because the population is larger – deaths will be correspondingly higher. Because the population now lives closer together – means any disease can spread faster.
As I am getting older.. grayer.. I realize that the quality of life is really important, don’t stress out on the small stuff. I wish to live as health, active and rational as possible… then hope to pass quickly.
My theory on death is that the result is not ‘Heaven’.. but that we are currently in what could be called ‘Purgatory’; where we have to get our individual acts together. If we die, we start over until the lessons are learned by our souls… then it is??(Different plane of existence?) If we really screw up, we may come back as another ‘lessor’ life form – ie. Rat? Mouse? Amoeba and have to work back up the chain. I find the concept that the best of the end of life is sitting around strumming a harp as being incredibly boring.
