| Meditation Prayer from Blairs funeral...
**Death is nothing. I have only moved to the room next door. I am me, you are you. What we have been to eachother will continue to be. Give me the name you have always given me; speak to me like you have always spoken to me. Do not use a different tone of voice, do not take a sad or solemn air. Pray, smile, think about me, pray for me. Let my name be mentioned as it has always been without emphasis or undertone. It is what it has always been. The thread has not be cut. Why would I be out of your mind simply because I am out of your sight? I am waiting for you. I am not very far, just here on the other side of the road. All is well, you see.**
"Many have found that the awesome sight of the star-studded heavens evoke a sense of wonder, an awareness of transcendence, that is charged with spiritual spiritual significance. Yet the distant shimmering of stars does not itself create this sense of longing; it merely exposes what is already there. They are catalysts for our spiritual insights, revealing our emptiness and compelling us to ask whether and how this void might be filled.
Might our true origins and destiny somehow lie beyond those stars? Might there not be a homeland, from which we are presently exiled and to which we secretly long to return? Might not our accumalation of discontentment and disillusionment with our present existence be a pointer to another land where our true destiny lies and which is able to make its presence felt now in this haunting way?
Suppose that this is not where we are meant to be but that a better land is at hand? We don't belong here. We have somehow lost our way. Would this not make our present existence both strange and splendid? Strange, because it is not where our true destiny lies; splendid, because it points ahead to where that real hope might be found. The beauty of the night skies or a glorious sunset are important pointers to the origins and the ultimate fulfillment of our heart's deepest desires. But if we mistake the signpost for what is signposted, we will attach our hopes and longings to lesser goals, which cannot finally quench our thirst for meaning."
-Alister McGrath
