Paul gets the heart, loses the heart,
jack gets the faith, loses the faith,
christine gets the family, and loses the family Have they
survived the ups and downs of life

how many lives do we live?
how many times do we die?
they say we all lose 21 grams at the exact moment of our death
everyone
and how much fits into 21 grams?
how much is lost?
when do we lose 21 grams?
how much goes with them?
how much is gained?
how much is gained?
21 grams, the weight of a stack of five nickles
the weight of a hummingbird
a chocolate bar
how much do 21 weigh

21 grams of soul is not enough to explain the gains and losses in life, but what can be done?

you don't have to believe in god to go on with your life, what we need is the courage from the heart, to experience and face, when the faith is honed, maybe the turning point is God.
