I went to a funeral yesterday. I am a slow learner. I am pretty sure that if I attended a funeral a day for a full year, on attending and leaving the next funeral after that run I would still be surprised by the same two thoughts: 1) life is uncertain, and 2) life is for living – NOW!
It did not escape me as I looked around the room that each time I attend a funeral I am a bit older. Now what were those two things again?
