At that point she would simply lie back with the bed tilted at the best possible edge. In Japan when a man is kicking the bucket, a screen is placed before them that demonstrates the Buddha making a trip to paradise. The screen is utilized as an update about where we are to center amid this voyage of life. Each moment of consistently I longed for that screen for Margaret. I enlightened her concerning the screen and its imagery, yet we both realized that it wasn't likely we'd discover a Buddha screen in the Bible Belt of North Carolina.
