What happens when we die?
Once again starting from the end of my day.
Melissa said that she would do a rough sketch for our t-shirts for only $35! Even though you guys don't know what that means.
At confirmation we talked about where we go when we die and death in general. Which is unfortunate because today's topic of the day has been generally, death. Which is very bad because I am uncomfortable talking about death.. Well not death. Just the people who die. I don't know what to say. I mean, when confronted, I usually say, "THey've gone to a better place." or something to that extent. But the thing is, who am I to say that they have? I mean if there is truly "a better place" (heaven) then there is a hell, too, right? Who am I to say that they didn't go to hell? I mean yes most of the time we're talking about great people, but who says they met the qualifications. And what if, we go on to live another life after our own. What if the next one, we muust go to, in interrupting the other, because it is more meaningful.And what about destiny. If there is a destiny, then we were destined to die at that time, effecting all those who are around us, in a good or bad way. Sure. None of us want to die. But who's to say where we go afterwards. Has anyone told you besides your holy book. I am sure there are atleast ten things that are ( not purposfully) misprinted in my holy book (the bible). I am not saying I believe in any of these things, because I don't. I don't know where I stand on death. Maybe, I just don't want to be wrong, but I'd rather be wrong and be 100% sure on something than to be right and not fully believe in it.
I guess the next most important part of my day was the news Obdulliah brought. Alexei's brother, Martin, died on Friday. He did not commit a single crime, unless being kind to everyone you meet is a crime. He seemed so enthusiastic about life.I don't have anything else to say, even though this is a wierd way to end an entry. But that's all I have.
