A certain emptiness

The pope passed away just yesterday... was sad cos he's been the leader of all the catholics around the world for so many years.. and his time finally came. but it felt okay though cos everyone knew that he had gone to be with the Lord. at mass, the priest said that today's mass was to be a celebration after the mourning.. why? simply because its a symbol of new life for the pope.. he need not go through all the sickness anymore and the Lord had taken him to a better place. in other words, death is not always a bad thing.. depends on how you look at it.. whether you want to be optimistic about it or rather be a pessimist. then again, if ur life was as fufilling as the pope's, death would mean that everything will soon be over and it won't be long till the time you go back to where you belong. but what if you've gone through life not knowing what ur purpose was? what God had planned for you to do? the main reason you even exist till now? life would seem pretty empty wouldn't it?

* couldn't continue.. not sure of what else to say.. comments please..
