As the title noted, those were merely random thoughts. It is interesting to

convey was salvation from tragedy. It is an interesting reversal of the
assumptions we have regarding tragedy itself.

Our bodies and minds belong to us, while here on earth, we are responsible for the right and wrong things we do, what happens next is a mystery ( ... )
