I died
Sometime I think we puposely drive ourselves to the lowest of lows
Because after death, there is rebirth
I don't let it get to me
"Tomorrow I will be reborn"
It is not only I that so often feels the need to constantly start again. It seems I can never survive with a particular "life" for long. It is a tapestry of the human condition. It threads our traditions (new years, baptism, every goddamn weight loss ad....)
Motivation, hope
the things I will never give up
because I could not give them up
and experience any kind of life at all
Tomorrow I begin my new life
"Tomorrow I will be reborn"
(((Many little rebirths here on earth
.....preparing us to the one that will come later)))
OUTSIDE THE BOX
North America: flowers and tombstones on the grave.
The Direh (Navajo) and Ladalch (Himalaya) both have doors of their houses facing the rising sun.
The Bara of Madagascar believe that ancestors control their destiny. The deceased is placed in a "house of many tears" where women weep three times daily. Men and women are separated through the day, but meet at night to feast, drink rum, sing and dance. ON the third day, the body is taken to the family burial house. Rum poured around the doorway announces the arrival of a new ancestor.
