Things you think of in class...

Chains that bind us are invisible, we are held to this earth by sense of obligation. We go through life incurring debts, favors, a vicious, never ending cycle. Those who break free of their duties are free and they savor their freedom, death welcomes them. We who are left look on, envious and toil still until our day comes. Cowardly we move through life, not living but merely surviving. Robotic motions dominate our daily routine and we long for our salvation day when we can finally rest our weary bones and lay our mortal body down for a final slumber.

In life we are called to answer whether the glass is half full or half empty and in truth, what does it matter? Time impresses itself upon all, leaving no one untouched and eventually, no matter what you feel about the glass, it will be empty. The inevitable will come and you will be faced with the end. He will come with scythe and cloak and I will embrace him fully, and nestle myself against him. I will wonder why you choose to fight a battle you will never win.

On that day of judgment there will be no heaven's gate, no Peter to review your life. You will be the final judge and jury. What will your judgment be?
