What this episode is about, or hopefully for our listeners, is not so much the focus on death,

but most importantly, how do we want to live with the lessons of death?

Too often, when a person thinks about death or the shadow of death,

it either depresses or makes a person upset, makes a person live life less. We're so hard on ourselves

and we think that unless it's big and noticed, it was wasted. And I think that even if you look at

this day, how many people were you kind to? Did you make feel better? Did you connect with? How

kind were you to yourself? It's those moments of connection with you, with the creator, with other

human beings, that that's really, I think, a life well lived. When we think about those either that

are in the process of leaving this physical world

or those that have left, and we believe that their energy never goes away.

But the question isn't so much whether they are here or not here, but rather are we connecting

to them or not connected to them.

conversation to be had.

So I shared with you, Michael, last week,

um, actually at the beginning of this week, I saw my father being wheeled out of his hospital
