Random Thoughts

Putting Therese to bed is prime time for thinking. Depending on my emotional state, my thoughts range from whimsical to practical, from uttered prayers to silent rants, and from despondent recollections to hopeful imaginings.
Right now, for example, I was going through the various actions I would do once I have extricated myself from a slumbering Therese's embrace. That led me to thinking, I should cherish this moment when Therese still needs and wants me close. Soon enough this too shall pass. I now remember that today is All Soul's Day and that today is an ideal day to pray for my loved ones who have died. Eternal rest grant unto them,O Lord. And let perpetual light shine upon them. Amen.
I wonder what it feels like to die....I pray I'd be prepared to face you,O God when my time comes. I pray that I would hear you say, "well done, my good and faithful servant. Come and enter into the joy of your Lord!"
