I have a poem on my sight that addresses this subject matter. I thought this would be an appropriate place to post a link in the hope that it might comfort someone.
i would just like to say that if you want to know more about death and dying, i suggest to read the book, HOME WITH GOD, by Neale Donald Walsh. it's very interesting. Or the new book by Deepak Chopra.
Death is harsh. Some pass away early. Some late. Why live a life of suffering and pain in order to only see death at it's harshest? If a child, only 6 years old dies in front of you, you cry. You mourn for the child. If Great Grandma about 95 years old dies, you probably wouldn't cry like you did for the 6 year old.
I think dwelling on death just makes it harder to get over. My grandfather died the day after x-mas. I got over it by a week later, I did so quickly because it would be harder to think about that person ever again. My grandpa has had colon cancer ever since I was about two years old. He died about two years ago when I was thirteen, a hard age to let go of someone you love....It's actually hard to let go at any age. I remember him until the day before he died it was hard, him coughing up blood, my grandma,aunt, and mother crying. They still keep that side of him lingering on their minds. I see him happy, death is a happy time for someone that has suffered for so long.
I dont get mourning. Whats the point? It's a waste of time and i could be doing better things. I've though about the ones that died, sure. But i wasnt going to keep thinking about it, life gos on and you set yourself new goals. It's a wake up call that you should have fun every day or atleast try.
My church teachers (yes, I have quite a few) tell me that people mourn because they should -- death is an "unnatural wrenching" of the soul from the body, and it is a result of sin.
Well, that's their opinion. Is death natural or unnatural?

Death is harsh, why so? I wish I knew.

I think that when a child dies, people tend to feel that the child never had much of a chance to experience life. They feel like the child's life was cut short and thus they feel sad being robbed of the opportunity to get to know what this child would become.
When an elderly person dies, people tend to view it differently. The person had lived their life and had become who they were intended to be. It's still very sad and the person will still be missed, but people expect the elderly to be the ones that pass away.......not a child.
I have seen much in my lifetime........I've seen the results of unfortunate accidents in which a child, teen, or adult has been forever changed. I have seen how much some of these people suffer........I wouldn't wish this on anyone. In all honesty, there are cases when it's okay to do what is needed to save the person's life, but there are also cases when the greater love would be to allow the person the right to die. It's never an easy choice to make.......sometimes it even seems cruel.......but is it? Some people get terminally ill or suffer a bad stroke and they want to die........it's their choice........so they starve themselves to death. It's not that they weren't offered food......they chose not to eat the life-saving food that was provided.
My dad passed away 9-30-2007 from the lung cancer that is caused by exposure to asbestos and a bad heart. He wanted to die.......he had enough. He chose to drink alcohol with his med despite the warning against doing this........it made him verbally abusive. He would have become physically abusive as well, but we told him that if he continued to act in that manner that we would have no choice but to place him in a nursing home. His dream was to die at home. He didn't eat as he should have. I can't say for sure and my mom thinks the same, but I think he was attempting to starve himself but then started eating junk food instead of eating foods that offered the proper nutrition to settle his stomach. It got really ugly during the months leading up to his death..........he had a living will on file and so there was nothing anyone could legally do to attempt to save his life. We were all very prepared for his death.......we knew it was coming, but we didn't know when. I was suppose to care for him the morning that he passed away........I pulled up to their home and a police car was right behind me.......I knew instantly that my dad had passed away between when I curved our plans to go to church that Sunday morning and the time the police car pulled up........nobody had to tell me what happened........I knew. Yeah, it was a very sad day...........but we knew it was coming. My dad was 79 years old when he passed away........in many ways, he was always there for me and looked out for me prior to his death..........my dad is greatly missed.
Where a baby or child will be remembered by it's parents........but an adult will be remembered by all that knew them and spoken about for years to come.
I have a poem on my sight that addresses this subject matter. I thought this would be an appropriate place to post a link in the hope that it might comfort someone.
The poem that was used when my dad passed away is as follows:
QUOTE
I'm Free
Don't grieve for me, for now I'm free; I'm following the path God laid for me. I took his hand when I heard him call, I turned my back and I left it all.
I could not stay another day, to laugh, to love, to work or play. Tasks left undone must stay that way. I found that peace at the close of the day.
If my parting has left a void, Then fill it with remembered joy. A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss, Ah yes, these things I too will miss.
Be not burdened with times of sorrow, I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow. My life's been full, I've savored much. Good friends, good times, a loved one's touch.
Perhaps my time seemed all too breif. Don't lengthen it now with undue grief. Lift up you hearts and share with me, I'm with God now; I've been set free.

I'm going out on a limb here and guessing that no one close to you has died. Like a parent or lover, or best friend. But if someone has, you have got to be one cold cold cold soul.
What do you people,think about the topic, dying.. eventually lifeless, never getting to see the
generation of your family,friends, family. Never getting to see the future.. Painless, Scary?,Pain?
Sadness? What do you think? So far me thinking of death,dying scares me.....
Well most of you may not know my age but I am old enought to call my self a parent. My vent is
regarding issues with other parents and sports. My son is playing little league baseball, T-ball
division, yes this is the age group that runs to the pitcher and sometimes after the ball while
standing on base and even after hitting the ball. This is the age division where it should all be
about fun. As a matter of fact we do not even keep track of a score. But what I dislike is the fact
that parents in this division are so aggressive. they are constatntly yelling and get ....

Recently I found that, there is a wrong concept to many people that drinking cold water can reduce
weight. They sowed me few interesting thermodynamics prove (actually they were wrong). They showed
that if some one drinks cold water, it will be increase its temperature inside our body. In another
word, it will burn few calories to increase its temperature. In this way, some one can burn their
calories and can loose their weight. They also showed me if I drink 1000g (around 1 L) water
having temperature 5 deg. C and it increase its temperature 25 deg C (to reach our b....
Now, I may only be a fairly young person - but I've had more than my fair share of pain and
death. Okay you want me to tel you a bit? this is about 8% of my share. So, when I was 5, my nan
had a fall trying to get chocolate and broke her hip - then she was diagnosed with dementia. We had
to move house and take her with us, to where we are now. Until may 2007, we had to cope with her.
She hit us, shouted at us, hallucinated, Fell, was double incontinent and so much more. My childhood
was just wrecked I can't say anything else because it was. Then she suddenyl di....
Death. That is the one thing people fear most. More than pain, hate, losing your keys, even going
mad. But why? Why are people afraid of a new adventure. A chance to restart? It's because you
don't actually know what is going to happen. You believe and hope, if you are a christian,
that you/they will go to heaven. You hope you/they wont suffer. But the only actual way to proove
this is to die. It is strange - when people are resucitated they don't remember anything of
death. Why? We will never know. But one thing should be certain - you needen't fear....
Link Ok, so a 43 year old pregnant woman was tortured to death at the hands of 6 people,
including a 12 year old. She was shot with a BB gun and burned with hot liquid, among other things.
The 6 people are being charged for QUOTE homicide of an unborn child, heinous battery, unlawful
restraint, and first degree murder. My thoughts: What the hell is wrong with people these days?
Honestly? Even if the dead woman was a *****, you don't hit a pregnant woman. These people must
be mentally handicapped to do something so insane. This ordeal is just horrifying.....
I think the Supernatural cast brings a whole new perspective on afterlife and the dead The
Winchester boys fight spirits that are left behind because they had unfinished business after they
died. The devil is pictured as a misguided lost soul that was just the devil because he disobeyed
god, and demons all worship him as "Lucifer" Death is just a small step in life because the
winchester brothers have sacrificed life limb and soul to return each other to the living. I'll
stop here so I don't spoil any more about the show. What are your thoughts on these occu....

Christmas night, a family were innocently playing beach cricket when a mob of 25 people started
provoking them. First, they started stealing beer from their esky, so the man's soon to be son
in law told them off, but they got violent and slashed at his face with a broken bottle, smashing
his jaw, collarbone and required something like 30 stitches. So the family went to the car to take
the man to hospital when the group started chucking beer bottles, pebbles, sticks and t....
I’m a very spiritual person. I believe in life after death (not karma), that there is life beyond
this world we’re living in. I’ve read and heard a lot of people who’s had Near Death Experiences
(NDEs). One man said he flew over New York City, went into his own home and watched his family ate
dinner while he was on his death bed because of a freak accident. He narrated the story exactly the
way it happened, what he heard and saw, and his family testified that it was all true. The man
recovered and is now a Good Christian. I’m a Christian too, brought up as one. Maybe t....
I will start off sharing a story, because the topic title really doesn't explain what I mean.
Okay, so I had a seemingly typical, abstract, thriller-movie dream a few months ago. I was sticking
next to a person around whom I was unlikely to get shot by the guys following me, and we somehow end
up trapped, and I'm forced to choose a way for my captor to kill me. I choose the thing that
involves eating something that looks like tea leaves, popped rice, and orange rinds, which is
apparently some sort of drug. So my captor gives me the poison and some water, and tel....

There are aguments on the philosophical, scientific and religious sides of life after death and not
one person can come to a definitive conclusion. Of course not! Nobody has ever REALLY come back
from the dead to tell us what happened to him/her after they died. Every argument is speculation.
Every religion has it's own teachings of death and the hereafter and I don't feel this is
something that anyone should argue with. We are taught a specific belief and nobody should ever tell
us we are wrong because it is our way and we are entitled to that way. Persona....
There is a huge market for products which promise to make weight loss easier, quicker, cheaper, more
reliable, or less painful. These include books, CDs, cremes, lotions, pills, rings and earrings,
body wraps, body belts and other materials, fitness centers, personal coaches, weight loss groups
and food products and supplements. US residents in 1992 spent an estimated $30 billion a year
on all types of diet programs and products, including diet foods and drinks....
I am a catholic man. I always welcome to my house people of different religious beliefs. I listen to
them. More often, they emphasize the credibility of their bible interpretations. The existence of
their congregation. I don't argue with them. After everything has been read and interpreted, I
ask them one simple question. Always this one question. IS THERE LIFE AFTER DEATH? I don't
want to argue line by line about the bible. I only want some answers to prove that there is life
after death. Because if this question nemains evaded, I don't think bible reading....
Has anyone seen the Death Note movie?? Well if you're a Death Note fan (like me) then you might
know about this. The popular manga/anime known as Death Note has become a movie with real actors and
everything. Right now its only out in the asian region. But there is talk of it coming out in
America. If you've seen the cover then I hope you know that the Manga L (Ryuzaki) looks nothing
like the one in the movie. It think they messed up the one in the movie, I know they can't look
exactly alike since this is a real movie and all but Raito (light) does look kind ....

I've been going out with this guy for about 2 years now, and for the past 1 or 2 months he was
acting a bit weird. A couple days ago he told me he didn't want to be in a relationship, he
wanted to be single, beacause he's been in serious relationships for a quite a while, so he just
wanted to have some time to himself. Well, with the help of a friend of mine and his, I found out

died of natural causes, the U.N. tribunal said. He was found dead in his bed at the U.N. detention
