Bit by Bit - Chapter 6, Part 10

Trey Smith

The Great Clod burdens me with form, labors me with life, eases me in old age, and rests me in death. So if I think well of my life, for the same reason I must think well of my death.
~ Burton Watson translation ~

I like the sound of that. In fact, I like it so much that, if I ever feel the need to join a church, I'm going to found my own. I'll call it The First Church of the Great Clod. :-)
