People - Make the World Go Around
By Curt Canada
June 2009 has produced a myriad of expected and unexpected news events of either the death of movie stars, the sudden loss of musical icons such as Michael Jackson, and the plane crash of Air France Flight 447. However, we continue to co-exist amongst the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan in which has recently escalated and the sudden train accident here in Washington DC.
I will stop here because it is no way possible for me to account and post all the events that has led to the death of one our mortal acquaintances. This week has left me a little grasping for straws. One can't help but reflect on their existence.
It's that yin and yang thing, that beginning and ending thing, that starting and stopping thing, that inevitable appointment with our creator thang! I don't know about you but it just makes you think about the true meaning of life in which for each of us is different. Quite frankly, the news media strives on such events. It's what they do best covering all events throughout the world. Anyway, I'm grasping for straws reflecting back on particularly what I was doing during the beginning careers of those famous people that left us this week. I find myself trying to account for how time has seemingly past by. Life's chores and new experiences are sometimes our best friend; well you know what I mean; following a favorite movie or TV series, rebuilding or painting the outside of your house, planning a vacation, visiting a friend you haven't seen in a long time, starting your first vegetable garden, taking a day off from work just to appreciate your surroundings, walking with the dog, reading a book, saying I love you to that special person(s) in your life, visiting someone in the hospital unknown to you, or just simply saying hi and how are you and really mean it!
I will end my post today thinking of yes how beautiful and courageous Farrah Fawcett was and the creative, mysterious warmth, and humble personality of Michael Jackson, Karl Malden and his detective series on the tube, and the recent Yemini airplane accident that killed about 152 people leaving miraculously a 13 year old female survivor. This is exactly what all our days are about!
So we move forward despite a continued troubling global economy and wars in various places allowing a moment to reflect on life's beauty, helping others less fortunate when we can, and giving thanks! Life and death are so intertwined that it leaves those left behind sometimes "grasping for straws."
