How things look at the end of life depends on our perspective, doesn’t it?
I mean, if death is the end, there is maybe much to fear.
But if death is only the beginning, there is hope that even all of this might be redeemable.
If this pain and suffering is not without meaning, if our lives have purpose, if we are not only stardust – well – that changes everything.
It changes everything about where we are headed.
And that changes everything about today.
“Here is the truth, Darrel. She is not at the end. She is at the beginning. Her fear has not become greater; it has become less and less until now, her fear is gone altogether. And she is not experiencing something bad that gets worse until there is nothing at all . . . she is experiencing something incredible that gets better, until there is everything.”
-Andy Andrews, The Noticer Returns
