He believes that at any moment we have a choice because love calls us every time someone dies. Love calls when we are hurt, disappointed, angry, or confused. It says we can hold on to our confusion, hurt, disappointment, anger, or fear, but we can also surrender to the welcoming arms of love. He believes that if we don't learn the spiritual lessons that death brings, they will be presented to us again and again just as if it comes knocking in the form of a cold and we don't listen, it may come knocking again in the form of the flu. If we still don't hear, it could be double pneumonia. This lesson teaches us to be aware of love when it first knocks on our door because it may come in the guise of death, or perhaps death is simply a disguise for love. Afterword, Montague's death continues to teach us lessons. He showed us that soul and body, spirit and earth are inextricably intertwined. He taught us that no experience is outside the container of the womb of love, not even the definitiveness of physical death. With this understanding, the Church believes that it cannot go anywhere in life without feeling angels with it. It suggests that all we need to do is open our hearts and listen at all times, and we will know this to be the case
