We are alive such a short time compared to how long we are dead. From the moment we are conceived we are in a constant activity of change. We are well known, for the most part, to only a comparatively small number of people, many of whom will fade in and out of memory in a lifetime. It is hard to make a lasting impression beyond a local weather report. Many do of course, but not many compared to all those who could be known. Julius Caesar comes to many as a popular but remote second to Jesus of Nazareth. Both experienced a hastened death but only Jesus was reported to have returned to many witnesses. It is significant that no one before nor hence is remembered to have done the same.
