Hi Tessa! Thank you for your article. Life is a journey on the road to enlightenment. With each step thru it…there is something new to learn. It does seem an awful waste that we die. We have gained so much knowledge and then it is gone. If we could live longer, just think what knowledge we could pass on to others, what skills we would have to share. As females…..we are the nurturers, the care givers, the sympathizers and most importantly….the trainers in lifes’ gentler aspects. Who do the children run to for help and wisdom? Mother and more offen…..Grandma who has learned more. Embrace the difficulties of your day to day trials….for it will make you a better and more knowledgeable person. Buddah said it all. Bless you and may you have the strength to continue your journey.
Dame Veronica
