“Only the Good Die Young”
-Billy Joel
Very true.
In the Orthodox Church we frequently (daily) pray:
• that the remainder of our life be one of peace and repentance, and
• for a Christian ending to our life...
The good need less time for amendment of life than do the wicked.
I used to wonder why notorious sinners diagnosed with serious cancers would continue to survive longer than reasonably expected.
They needed the extra time. I pray they used it wisely.
Wow, even cancer walks away.
