The God Squad: Born Again: Are we reincarnated after death?

Rabbi Marc Gellman, Tribune Content Agency on

If all this is not enough for you, then try this glorious poem by Mary Oliver, may her memory be blessed:

When Death Comes,

When it’s over, I want to say: all my life

I was a bride married to amazement.

I was the bridegroom, taking the world into my arms.

When it’s over, I don’t want to wonder if I have made of my life something particular, and real.

 

I don’t want to find myself sighing and frightened, or full of argument.

I don’t want to end up simply having visited this world.
