Death is Sweet, but God's Will is Sweeter

Put yourself in my shoes for a second.

I am a bubbling cauldron of happiness and love.

This life is tiring and all these people fighting is so annoying.

I wish everyone would just calm down, think rationally, and be at peace.

I found my peace in Jesus Christ and our Holy Family.

I just wish I could infuse my Treasure into the heart of everyone I meet.

I wish I could transmit visible grace in my hugs.

It's harder than that, and I suffer, but so did my Father and His Son and His Holy Spirit.

The world destroys my peace, and when my heart is smashed in a confused heap of rubble in my chest,

I take in my last breaths and run to my Mother and Father, who hold me and return my life to me with their unfathomable love.

Then, they release me.

Their arms loosen and I am sent back off into the world.

This is good.

Because the next time my heart screams in agony,

I can bring another tattered soul with me into the loving grasp of the Most High God and His Blessed Mother.
