May 14—A man has died and the mourners are gathered for the funeral. The pastor is being kindly concerning the deceased, and declares that "he was an exemplary father, a hard worker, and a good Christian." The widow leans over to one of the children and whispers:"Go back in the box and see if it is your father in there." Ruh-ro; sounds like trouble. The widow was not in agreement with the pastor's assessment of her late hubby. Perhaps he was not nearly as fine a fellow as the preacher thought. Perhaps others in attendance also wondered about the veracity of the pastor's words. We can sometimes fool the public about the kind of person we are, but it's tough to fool those who actually live with us day to day. You may have heard on TV some neighbor say that so and so sure seemed friendly, after it has come to pass that so and so turned out to be an axe-murderer. Hmm. The true character of a person is often not widely known. Most of us can put on a good face as necessary. And how about you? Do you figure that others really know the real you? And would you want them to? www.yahoo.com/news/really-knows-whether-were-good-171700883.html

The pastor probably never met him and just got paid to do a funeral. But I do find it funny how people will talk about someone behind their back and then when they die, they show up and tell the family what a wonderful person s/he were.
