Yeah, there's that, again, that immediacy of what it brings to the forefront of imagining we're on our deathbed and just envisioning that. What does that bring up in us in terms of what we felt like we haven't resolved in our life or what becomes most important in that moment of death, right?

And again, like we were speaking to earlier, can we align our life in such a way that when we arrive at that moment, we can... embrace the other side joyfully, you know, and like kind of with a sense of abandonment and completion with this life, you know? Yeah. Do you feel like you've gotten closer to being able to be at that place?

Hmm. Just it feels like an amazing amount of self-acceptance and acknowledgement. And I know there's, of course, many moments at both and probably both of our lives and many people that are listening that completely forget that and to acknowledge how far we've come and the impact that we've made and the good that we've done.

But I think it's an important reminder to see where am I at on God's balance sheet? Where do I need to make some more deposits? Where do I need to make amends? Where have I not forgiven so I can be ready for death should it come in this moment? That's powerful.

It's hard not to view him as a guy in the sky with a nice beard, sky daddy giving you a hug. If God is perfect understanding, we can't understand and judge something at the same time. And yet, so much suffering that's happening too, God must encompass all of that as well. I think of the purpose that pain and suffering play on the path of spiritual growth.
