“Do you think his death will bring the other’s closer” was a comment I heard to today.

I know that this sentiment is common and that many believe that time will erase all wounds and death is a reminder that we ‘must’ get along for time is fleeting.

It is a fallacy that we must all get along, that we are somehow flawed if we don’t agree and want to spend time with everyone.  And God forbid it be a family member. 

What happened to the simple fact that lives don’t match, that we don’t get along, that we don’t agree on the way each lives their lives, how they deal or not deal, be or not be. 

Isn’t it okay to not get along? 

Isn’t it more honorable to agree that ‘nope we don’t match’?

Why are we so afraid to stand up and face the facts that we don’t get along and find more peace being apart? 

That when death arrives we will see someone pass that we didn’t get along with, that neither of us were the cause, but perhaps our pasts just didn’t lend themselves to gel a future.

A looming death will not make us match and get along, no matter if death is a day or two away or a lifetime, the simple fact is that the distance between our beliefs are too wide for the bridge of understanding.
