I’m more of a ‘death is a transition thing’, but that’s based on my own experiences. With regards to living, I do not glean any solace from any religion. So the death with religion thing makes it even less appealing to me. Heaven has never appealed to me. Not that hell does, either, cause you know I hate to be hot. But I don’t believe in either of them. It doesn’t matter what happens to us when we die, the living miss the dead.
I like that story about the dragonflies and the afterlife, do you know that one?
it isn’t death I’m afraid of, it’s the lead up to it. My work has me looking at reports that get filed when things go wrong at nursing homes. it is that which terrifies me.
Right. As Leonard Cohen said, it’s the process that bothers him.
