How we view death is often a reflection of the way we live . I do not know much about the woman infront of me, and honestly I dont intend to. Her eyes flicker with invisible energy as she lights up when she sees her order number on the prompter The smell of fresh fries and burgers somehow reach her brain even though she cant breath the greasy air in. I wait in our booth watching her intently as she does a little dance when she gets her food. Its strange that she meshes so well with a mcdonalds on the side of the road while I drown in the possibility of asking her about the one experience she has that is of value to me. How we view death is often a reflection of the way we live, so what does it say about me that I dont want to know the truth. Leave a Reply. |
