LIFE AND THE LAW - THE MYSTERY

Life is either fully there or not at all.

Nothing is partly alive. It is or it isn’t. Yet sometimes we act as though we are only half alive. We need to recognize the Life that is in us, and honour it as long as it is there.

When a person dies, there is no immediate chemical difference between the body dead and the earlier body alive. Yet something has changed - something has gone. What is that something?

Where does our Life come from, and where does it go? We know that matter and energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transformed. What about Life?

Someone said the greatest Mystery is that we are here to wonder about a mystery.
