The Life We Bury

Merry Rudinger

Carl chuckled. "Well, there's that," he said. “But it also means that this is our heaven. We are surrounded every day by the wonders of life, wonders beyond comprehension that we simply take for granted. I decided that day that I would live my life-not simply exist. If I died and discovered heaven on the other side, well, that'd be just fine and dandy. But if I didn't live my life as if I was already in heaven, and I died and found only nothingness, well... I would have wasted my life. I would have wasted my one chance in all of history to be alive."
