Stopping Short


I came across this in Facebook: Happiness is when the plant you thought had died comes back to life. I remember there was a story about Jesus Christ coming back to life after having been crucified. I thought about some Chinese who when near death make a pact to convert to another religion if they recover from their illnesses. Some Buddhists promise to become vegetarians or offer their locks of hair, promising to go bald upon recovery. There are instances of people who are like the plant; just when they thought they are going to die, they become well again. People do believe in the power of prayers; just that all seem to stop short of praying for eternal life. Why, I wonder?
