Sometimes I wonder who would cry if I died. Even better, if they would attend my funeral if someone cared enough to spend the time planning one for my dead body. I wonder if people would actually give me a funeral or cremate my body. I also wonder what life is like after you die. I think it's just one big party with Jesus in Heaven. I wish there was a way for me to find out and not die somehow. I wish after I die I could come back to life even for just a few second to tell everyone what Heaven is like and not to worry because I will be in a happy place. I also want to leave some sort of impact on the world. Even if it just a small one. If I don't I will feel like my life was a waste and someone who died younger could have had my lifespan and had a great effect.
Something else I wonder is if the dead are still with us. Do they watch us and protect us somehow or are the gone forever and in their afterlife they can't do anything to still be with us? I once found this one quote that said, "Perhaps they are not stars, but rather openings in Heaven where the love of our lost ones pours through and shines down upon us to let us know they are happy," inspired by and Eskimo Legend. (website I found it on if you are wondering: http://www.lightfromabove.org/articles/quotes.html I feel like I'm doing something for language arts putting that). I really like that perspective of thinking. It supports my random idea that science takes away imagination and religion. I haven't told many people my view on this, but I have wrote stuff down about it before, but I don't know where, so I'm going to make it up as a go along! I want to start with, what if that quote were true? A scientist would just laugh and say, "You're stupid and wrong! Stars are simply balls of gases. Inside the gases fuse together to create explosions and other gases. This is called nuclear fusion and makes the stars glow. Oh, by the way, do you ever pay attention in science class?" They may not say that exactly, but I'm sure it would go along those lines. Anyway, I think anyone can come up with something somewhat reasonable and teach people that it is true. Eventually after enough people know about it, it will go in textbooks and kids will be forced to learn that it is true at school. I honestly try not to believe anything in science class. I know that is a bad thing to say, but really we don't really know if it is true. What if they people who came up with all these ideas that we know to be "true" today came up with something else just as believable instead? Would we go along and say, "hey, that sounds like it could be true! Why didn't I think of that before?!" If I got a T.A.R.D.I.S. I would go back in time to when people started figuring out what stars were and tell them the quote I stated earlier. I bet people would believe that and that is what people would learn in modern times.
Anyways, I love that quote and I am going to believe it is true from now on. I love it and think it is simply beautiful. Why scientists didn't think that too, I don't know. I think to be a scientist you would have to forget about religion, because many scientific facts go against a religious fact. Yeah I don't know where I'm going with this so let's move on, shall we?
That lovely quote also reminds me of the loved ones I have lost. I have lost my uncle, my great aunt, my great, great, great grandma, my two gerbils (not that big of a deal), and my dog. I would like to think that those Eskimos were right and they are happy up in Heaven. I would also like to expand on the thought of the quote and say that they are watching us, but not in a creepy way. I think the dead are looking upon earth, not to haunt it, but to never forget those who they held close to them. We may lose them, but they don't have to lose us. I think in Heaven people get to reunite with others they had lost before them and they all live happily wondering who will join them next and why they came. I think when people get to Heaven they can ask God how and/or why they or someone else died. If I go to Heaven, I will ask God how and why my dog Amber died. It has always been a mystery that has lingered over me for the past five years. I want to know what happened to her. Her death was so unexpected. For those of you reading this that don't know what happened, I'm sorry but I'm not going to post my memory of the event. If you really want to know, become my Language Arts teacher; I usually write something about it in LA.
This post has become fairly jumbled, but I wrote it over the course of a few days. I may or may not make sense, but this is what I came up with. A good day to you all (ya'll/you guys/ you people... what ever you prefer) and until next time...
A lot of people would miss you of course, not the point of this comment though. I would like to simply share my thoughts with you according to you paper. I do not believe in heaven and hell, god, religion, etc. Not because I believe it couldn't be true, but it sort of scares me. I just think if someone is suffering, when they die they'll be happy when they die because the pain in gone. We will not be floating in a void of non existence once we die. No we'll just be gone, only living in the memories of others. Even if you don't go on to change the world I would bet that you've still made a impact on someone's life. What lays beyond our cold, non blood pumping hearts and blank eyes, is nothing but decomposing flesh. However that does not matter as long as you've loved in your life, as long as you had friends, you and the memories of you will last for ever and will be loved. So in essence no one if ever really gone. Their bodies may be cold, voice un spoken, but they will always live on.
