Death Thoughts
A friend handed me a thin book and made me read it. She already told me the gist of the story, so there’s no element of surprise. It’s about a little boy who was deathly sick but was afraid to die. The boy did die in the end of the story. But he was able to overcome the fear that crept in him. This made me ponder what it’s really like to die. My dear paternal grandmother has been telling that every man’s days are numbered. Even when we still disagree on some religious views, it was something I couldn’t argue with.
