I am about to go...

"I am about to go the way of all the earth."
-- King David (1 Kings 2:2)
We all know that someday we will die. But it is a fact we hide very well from ourselves. I have often thought what would happen if we were given an hour's warning before our death. I can imagine that the telephone lines would get very busy with people calling others to express their love for them.
And, on days when tiredness sets in, I feel that death is not the enemy of life, but its friend. Who really would want to live on earth forever?
