Earth to earth
Ashes to ashes
Dust to dust.
Where humans come from: creation
Our frailty and transience: we're temporary
Powerful symbols: humility, mourning, repentance, and judgment.
Blessed is the one who loves this world so much he would come back as beggar for one more morning on the skin. he will not ask for heaven, he will ask for sunlight. he will not ask for peace, he will ask for one more winter, one more name to bear. he kneels and says, bring me back, bring me back again. i am not finished here
Left side is a human lung. Right side is a tree.
The tree breathes in what the lung breathes out. The lung breathes in what the tree breathes out.
God's design is incredible.
