Do I have to be prepared?

I’m not sure. That I want to be prepared to die.  Maybe I’d rather just let it happen. Unexpectedly. Without warning.  Just maybe. It would be a waste of time. Getting prepared. I’d have to decide whether it should be a happy or sad event. I know. That I wasn’t prepared to be born. And it seems to have worked out. Really, no preparation was necessary.  Though I didn’t have a choice in the matter. Life and death. Just happens. --Jim Broede
