I often find myself seeking the best in people. Hoping to find integrity, faith, and steadfastness in the face of danger. As soon as I see a man tried in his own fire, he often folds because he is not there to burn, he is only there for the pleasure or praise of himself. I do not expect that I will have many friends, or family at my funeral. It reminds me of those Pearl Jam lyrics-
“Oh, I’m a lucky man to count on both hands the ones I love, Some folks just have one, yeah, others, they got none, uh-huh” – Pearl jam
To be completely honest, there is no one in this Earth that is not alone. We all seek connection outside ourselves but rarely take the time to connect within ourselves. I hope to see things change in our present age, but if it does not, will a Tragedy be any less beautiful? God is the author and finisher of this book. We are all characters, sometimes friends, sometimes foes, but always speeding forward to that great day of reckoning. There will be fire and water, and a small space for only one man to narrowly escape. we all will be in that place alone. God help us. He will.
