Will Be Back Soon

There has been some discussion on several places on the internet recently about things of a otherworldly nature.  I have never made my feelings know on the subject for fear of reprisal.  No, I am not going to on a soapbox and start to preach.  Let me first say that I celebrate someone's life rather than their passing.  I never remember the date someone died.  Once you are in the circle of life, you are part of it even if you pass away.  The atheist scientists call this the Laws of Thermodynamics that energy continues in a different form.  I personnaly believe in the Resurrection of the Dead.  Here is a great song by David Gilmour that address this point: "There's No Way Out of Here."  Here is another great tune called "Let's Get Metaphysical." I could point to any one thing that has been more of a saving grace in my life, it is this belief.  No matter how bad it gets, I will survive - I will get by.  I took some photos of some grave sites for my family tree in a rather large cemetary.  As I was taking these shots, I saw two grave stones that were side by side.  The first one read. "Butts."  The second one read "Waites."  I wonder if they didn't plan that?  I went to the the office to get some information on locations of some of the graves, and this signe was in the window, "Will be back soon."  I would like that as my epitaph.  Speaking of that, it reminds of this song by King Crimson
