Read This Slowly
Like how a candle wick burns
But ferociously, like how forest fires churn
You contemplate what comes after life
But… wouldn’t…. living
I mean shouldn’t life…
Consume you
But death is on your mind
You dive into mysteries
Deep sea explorations
Do you really have the time?
Life is precious
When you die, you don’t come back
Only Jesus could do that
Just in case you think religion is wack
This is no fable or fantasy or children’s story
Only non-fiction
Based on a true story
“I have seen everything in this meaningless life, including the death of good young people and the long life of wicked people. So don’t be too good or too wise! Why destroy yourself? On the other hand, don’t be too wicked either. Don’t be a fool! Why die before your time? Pay attention to these instructions, for anyone who fears God will avoid both extremes.”
