As cherished friends, relatives and dear family members grow older, a thought comes to mind; it is difficult to realize continued life without their company, but it is even more difficult to release them from long term obligations of friendship and family obligation earned over decades.
Whose life is more cherished; the living or the dying? Difficult to discern, when the living care so little for who lives and who dies; beyond their borders. Difficult to discern as they commit loved one to infirmities equal to imprisonment and incarceration. Difficult to discern when such loved and cherished lives are condemned to suffer in agony and pain; tantamount to torture. Difficult to discern when the pursuit of oppression, repression and destruction surpasses all forms that engage Peace.
It is difficult indeed, to lose those one loves to illness and infirmity, death and disease; worse yet to watch them suffer in pain. There are only 2 prayers one can offered here; the first for Healing that may or may not come and other for the release from the pain and suffering; into the Peace sought for the entirety of that Life.
Which would you choose?
Which demonstrates the Compassion and the Mercy sought throughout the ages by all Mankind?
Would you deny others their Rite to Peace as you deny them their Rite to choose that Peace, while attempting to gain that Peace yourself?
Which would you choose?

Suffer ye the Children of Man to pass this way to Peace.
