Hard truths

-Watch your step Colin.. that’s a big and slippery tree.
-Is it dead?
-Yup
-Why did it die?
-I don’t know.. maybe because it was old.
-Does everything die ?
-Yes
-Why?
-It’s just the way things are.
-Daddy.. are YOU going to die?
-Someday, yes.
-I don’t want you to die..EVER!!
-.... I’m going to be around for a long long long time.
-Promise?
-Pinky swear
-..Daddy?
-Yes?
-Am I going to die?
-.....
