A bird gets hit by a car attempting to cross the street, landing stunned and most likely lifeless to the center line. Its mate lands nearby, unwilling to move for cars whizzing by in both directions, most likely sure to meet the same fate as its companion. Perfect and selfless dedication and love, to the end.
Yet another reminder from life to remain mindful of what matters most in life, to let the remainder soak in, then to let it go. No attachment, no suffering…
I often ponder the concept of reincarnation, and consider a substantial reason for its existence to be for the innocent. Beyond all the children that have perished due to greed, war, famine, and ignorance, consider all living things that have died this way. Isn’t it only fair that these beings be given at least one more chance to live life to the fullest?
You’ve got, got, got no time. Life is what you make it.
