Live Wisely
Few days ago, as we prepared to sleep, I asked my niece to pray and she began and ended with; Dara: "GOD please do not allow us to wake up dead"... I didn't know when I began to laugh. She sat up wondering what her innocent self had done. As I drifted to sleep, those words lingered on. I mused on it and somehow I realized her simple prayer was not only sincere but true. We hear of people who sleep, and do not wake up on this side. The fact is that these people actually do wake up elsewhere, and not here where we are. So the truth remains that they wake up dead. Sad but true. Just a reminder that we have just this one life, and it is best we live it well and wisely. Yspot!
