My Latest Hero
You'll find him under my "Dead People" links. You'll hear a lot of commentary about him by turning on the television, so I won't expound here. I'll only say that I spent a lot of the day Saturday in tears over our loss.

"...all language about everything is analogical; we think in a series of metaphors. We can explain nothing in terms of itself, but only in terms of other things." (Dorothy Sayers, Mind of the Maker, 1941)

Matrix Quotes I've Abused
-
"It's the question that drives us, Neo"
-
"Okey dokey.. free my mind. Right, no problem, free my mind, free my mind, no problem, right..."
-
"I imagine that right now you're feeling a bit like Alice, tumbling down the rabbit hole."
-
"Never send a human to do a machine's job."
-
"It's like a splinter in your mind, driving you mad..."
-
"Choice. The problem is choice."
-
"Why do you do it? Why get up? Why keep fighting? Do you believe you're fighting for something? For more than your survival? Can you tell me what it is? Do you even know? Is it freedom? Or truth? Perhaps peace? Yes? No? Could it be for love? "
-
"I know Kung Fu."
-
"You have to understand, most of these people are not ready to be unplugged. And many of them are so inert, so hopelessly dependent on the system, that they will fight to protect it."
-
"I still like candy."
-
"There is no spoon."
-
"You didn't come here to make a choice, you've already made it. You're here to try to understand why you made it."
-
"Buckle your seatbelt, Dorothy, cuz Kansas is going bye-bye."

-
"Welcome to the desert of the real."
-
"Good! Adaptation, improvisation, but your weakness is not your technique."
-
"What is real? How do you define real? If you're talking about what you can feel, what you can smell, what you can taste and see, then real is simply electrical signals interpreted by your brain."
-
"Unfortunately, no one can be told what the Matrix is. You have to see it for yourself."

You know Janay, I don't think the feeling ever goes away. Remembering my grandmother and great aunt, and other elderly people who got that far away look in their eye when they talked about people they had known who had died...
I think it goes back to the garden, like Daryl mentioned on Sunday, and that in our genes we know we were not made for death.
That being said, I do want to embrace Jesus on this journey through our changing world, as you mentioned. I think that's what faith is all about - letting go of the familiar and trusting God for the new.
