The Remains of Life
Gretchen was pulling up the dead stuff from her garden, when something caught her attention. Hands filled with dried mums, she looked up to see the source of an unusual buzzing above. Assuming the drone to be a class project from the nearby school, she tossed her bunch into a pile nearby, then bent further across the bed to dig out the bulb she intended to save. The ping of her watch stopped her.

A Good Death
Ever since her divorce, Veronica immersed herself in spirituality, first studying meditation technique, then reading the many masters of recent times. One theme kept popping up: a good death. If one could overcome the illusion that one was separate from all else, Veronica read, then one would be able to accept death peacefully, even joyfully. She learned that death is merely the continuation of life, in a new form, of course, and was even beginning to see that true union is fully possible only in death.
