Greetings Dear Reader,
My first published book, Chronicles
of Thanatos the Reaper, is about the Angel of Death. It is my attempt to justify the necessity of
death in our lives. This year it has
been in the media every day. Many have
faced death who had not anticipated it.
The origin of today is the chance to reconcile the necessity of death in our lives. It is set in a time where death is ongoing in our part of the world. Nature embraces the death of leaves and bees and the world turns colder. We fail to hallow death as we should.
It is not death that we need to embrace but, rather, we need
to see that death is the transition. It
is our embarking on our journey to “that Undiscovered Country from whose burning
no traveler returns.” The evidence of
how we deal with this is found in our language.
We speak of the dead in the past tense when our faith tells us they are
not gone from anything but our presence.
“How we deal with death is at least as important as how we
deal with life.” It is not a no-win scenario. Death is the ultimate victory over life. The loss is for those who are still
living. If I follow Christ and Death
joins our journey, then I am secure that it is hallowed by Jesus. I owe a death and will pay that debt when required
to do so. For now, I must live as if each
moment could be my last.
It is in each moment that I find love, Christ, and
life. It is following his path that
leads to life in every way. Life will
not exist without Christ. In him, we live
and move and have our being. So, today I
pause to hallow all those who have ventured to that Undiscovered Country and remember
that they are all still there.
Today we all can gaze on a blue moon. It is said that these events occur rarely and
that those with a blue moon in their eyes are unique. I will take some time to sit under the blue moon
and remember those who have preceded me.
Each of them is unique. Each is
created, loved, and cherished by the Father.
So are you, Dear Reader. We are required
to hold every life sacred. If follows
then that we are to hallow every life that moves on ahead of us.
Wishing you joy in the journey,
Aramis Thorn
Mat 13:52 So Jesus said to them, "That is why every writer who has become
a disciple of Christ’s rule of the universe is like a homeowner. He liberally
hands out new and old things from his great treasure store.”

Every human story is part of the great story that leads
to the Father getting everything back to Good.
