David's Mourning

As long as David’s child was sick, he sat of the floor, cried and refused to eat.  When the child died people were afraid to speak with and approach David.  They said to themselves, “If he reacted that way when the child was sick, how will he react now that the child has passed away?”

But David did a strange thing.  He got up from the floor, asked for food, water and a change of clothes.

 

Idea: We should appreciate and dote on the living.  Once they have dead they have passed from our eyes and the love and devotion we should have showered on them while alive.

“Between 1305 and the early 1800’s. the House of Taxis ran a form of pony express service all over Europe….   Its couriers clad in blue and silver uniforms, crisscrossed the continent carrying messages between princes and generals, merchants and money lenders.” –Alvin Toffler, The Third Wave We may think we are the first generation consumed by rapid communication but we are not.   Throughout our history it has been a priority. Of course, now in the 21 st century we must ask: are we better or worse for it?
