The Last Moment

Have you ever been close to death? Have you ever given it a thought as to what it is like? Maybe, it's about time we do. It can make a difference as to how we find LIFE while we still have a CHANCE.
The final moment is the LONGEST MOMENT of our life, but we have glimpses and a window to it, even now, as we exist.
The final moment is so much like entering the CONFESSIONAL BOX. It is scary isn't it to be ALONE with WHO WE ARE. There is no priest, this time, but SOMEONE is there. Will we RECOGNIZE HIM when we come FACE to FACE? Will there be a VEIL of SHAME that separates or a JOY upon seeing HIM?
The next step is something we all had a great deal of practice in our lifetime. We now WATCH REALITY TV inside the CONFESSIONAL BOX. It is the clearest PICTURE and the widest SCREEN we will ever see. We will watch our OWN LIVES. Hear our own words. See our own actions. All the IMPRINTS of our HEART shall be REVEALED. The PRECIOUS TIME of our OWN LIFE that keeps on ROLLING right before our eyes. The CONNECTIONS that we never see. The CONSEQUENCES that are now unveiled for time and space is no longer a hindrance. No illusions, just the NAKED TRUTH of our own lives that can make us cry, laugh, pout, smile, be shocked, be joyful, be sick, be relieved, be bored, be angered, be pained.
Now, we CAST our own RATING. It is not as easy as we would like to think. There will be NO CROWD to cheer or boo. There will be NO COMMENTATORS or PSYCHOLOGISTS to analyze. There will be NO SURVEY to take refuge on. Will we avoid the "yes" or "no" and start BLAMING? Or make a list of EXCUSES? Will it be a CONFESSION or a DENIAL? Will it be ACCOUNTABILITY or ARROGANCE? Will it be MERCY or PRIDE? Will it be GRATITUDE or DISBELIEF?
In THE END, our WILL be DONE and we have CAST our OWN JUDGEMENT. In our MORTAL LIVES, we have FORGED the DOOR to ETERNITY - an eternal life or eternal damnation.
Still, we have the TIME to start WATCHING and FACE ourselves, our own REALITY. Then, maybe we can FINE TUNE our WILL to God and have a clearer picture, and make a better script for our lives by the CHOICES we make. We are SPENDING our TIME but we don't know how much is on our ACCOUNT.
