Andre,

It seems you are blessed to hear the music of a funeral procession 
outside you window.  What better experience to wake you to 
life?  There is a practice of imagining one's death.  I do it 
occasionally.  Mimicking death is a mystical experience in many 
initiations.  Born again?  Hopefully without too much dogma!

Sorry,  but I've been thinking about the Marche Funebre.   Or what it 
would be like to suddenly have no-thing.
