"I do so

as the song says, and the Lord can call me home whenever he wants. But
my reflections about death are marked by a sense of curiosity and
intrigue. . . ."

(RI), reflected on the transition from life in this world to death and on the importance of remembering that our future, after we complete our pilgrimage on earth, will last forever.
