&quot;As you get closer to the light, the greater your shadow becomes.&quot;<br /> &quot;Never fear shadows. They simply mean there&#039;s a light shining somewhere nearby.&quot;<br /> &quot;The best way to become boring is to say everything.&quot;<br /> &quot;Forget arrogance, just ask and recieve&quot;

Words cannot describe,
The loss and ddread I feel.
When i walk out on this plain,
All my fears are real.
I just can't help it,
When tears fall unbidden,
From my face,
To water the sunbaked Earth.

Death destroys all. But we can all hope to have at least one person to remembers us and pray for our souls to be accepted into heaven.
