This death business

The Boss meets with Q his spiritual adviser:

'But Q I am still thinking about this death business.'
'I know Boss and I can see you are hurting.'
'You can?'
'Yes.'
There was a pause in which the Boss looked at Q and Q looked at the Boss.
'When people die on me I miss them so much...(with a quieter voice) will I ever see them again?'
'Where are they now?'
'Good question Q... I don't know.'
'Can you feel them near you?'
'I can, sometimes.'
'So they are alive to you?'
'Of course.'
'So what is death?'
'I still don't know but in a way it does not matter as my dead family and friends are still with me.'
'And where they are you will join them one day.'
'Ans where they are I will join them one day.'

Q nodded his work with the Boss done for now.
