How to Die Well Michael F Conrad

There is not much written on how to die, much less a spiritual preparation for death. Read this, if you are diagnosed with AIDS, or some form of cancer, or told you are going to die. Now what? Panic? Hopelessness? Fear? Maybe all of the above? We are more fearful of talking about death than we are about sex. Remember how you felt when you first found out about sex? As you get older, you forget those feelings of insecurity and embarrassment. People are reluctant to talk with you about dying, because they must face their own dark side. This is a book about how to die well. It is actually a book about how to live well, and embrace the quality of life in whatever time you have left. All of us fit into that category. Intellectually, we know that every one of us must die, and pay taxes, as the saying goes. It is also true that, for almost all of us, we don't know when we are going to die It is just the shock of your life when you find out you are going to die in a few months or a year. Death is something over which you have no control. However, you do have control over going to Heaven. All this dying and death business is not theoretical. On October 13, 2014, my doctor told me I had CLL type of Leukemia. I don't pretend to know all of the answers about death. I do know this. I choose to follow in the footprints of the Master and put this news in perspective, This booklet is the result of my discernments and, hopefully, will help prepare you for the most wonderful journey of your entire life, life... Forever.
