We wanted wings


The question arises as we sit on the couch and Chris is playing Madden on Jake’s flat screen. I perch in the white recliner and we wonder,
            “What if we died a long time ago?”
            “So this is Heaven?”
            “Yeah man. We are angels.”
            “We’ve already died and that’s why we question death.”
            “Because this is Heaven and we are disappointed.”
We find conclusions for our questions and pass around the good root. I find an answer for what I had been asking myself for years. Except our discussion ends quickly and I know I will begin to find holes in the walls we had securely built around our beings. Then I’d climb out and find myself defenseless in the open.
