"Gone to one’s Glory" so they say. Where exactly is it that, if we’re all headed that way?
Let ’s ask around to see where and what people think Glory will be. It might be one place for you and another for me.
Some people, view Glory as a place out beyond the blue, with pearly gates. They imagine it will be like walking into a magical, nirvana escape.
"I am a restricted diabetic who must pass up the desserts that I like. Glory for me would be a place like Food Network where I can indulge and delight, and never worry about an insulin spike"
"As an athlete who loves to train my body to the highest level of fitness Glory for me would be a place of perpetual summer Olympics."
"I am an obese lady with a hundred pounds to lose. Glory for me would be a place that receives all, even those as big as a caboose."
"As an amputee who lives with stumps Glory for me would be a place where you get new legs, to run like Forrest Gump."
Winfrey, Bezos, Buffett, and Gates? Have you discovered Glory here on earth?
"For me, an astronaut, who loves to travel in outer space I would find Glory to be a place to encounter those outside of the human race."
Glory might not be as far away as some make it seem; we may be shocked! Glory may be another town, another neighborhood or just around the block.
When ones we love go to their glory we moan and we grieve But what if we’ve got it all wrong like most other things we believe?
Going to one’s Glory might just mean going on to achieving one's highest dreams
The ancestors described what they thought glory would be Using their highest imaginations and creativity.
For us It may be imperative and the right time to change that old narrative
Glory might be one place for you and another place for me In the meantime, in this life, let’s stay present, and be all that we can be.
