Rest in Peace

I attended a memorial service the other day.  I sat in the back thinking about how life is very precious and life is so extremely short.  I wept.  Don’t we all think about this when we are faced with death?  There is the one quote that kept going through my mind, over and over.

Rest in Peace

“Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming “Wow! What a Ride!”
