actually, i think keyman is slightly off. i think that this is the point where we finally realize that a) we have been extremely selfish and have pushed God to the side and b) now he is finally giving us what we sought after so bad (to live life apart from God) and lastly c) it really, really sucks, to use an understatement. i think that even though we realize all this, we all try to say that we don't need God anymore and deceive ourselves still further. the "we shall miss him" seems tacked on, almost like it was meant to be said with a tone of apathy-covering-fear.
