We talked about this in class and I thought it was really interesting. What does happen after we die? Do we go to heaven? Hell? Is there a God or multiple gods in the sky that sit there and go "You're going to heaven, you're going to hell" and condemning us all? Do we turn into nothingness and simply get buried in the ground and stay there, rotting away and eventually forgotten?
Personally, I don't know what to believe. I don't want to think that there's just nothing after we die. I've had too many times where I could feel someone who has passed on with me. That sounds dumb but it's true. There have been times when I've been extremely emotionally unstable and I've almost felt a comforting hand from Ben on my shoulder (Ben being my best friend that died a couple of summers ago). I've felt like I can hear him saying "it's going to be okay", and that's what gives me hope. Ben was a bright, sparkling, warm personality, and I can't believe that he's just gone forever. He can't be.
So that leads me to believe this: I don't know about God, or multiple gods, or a specific heaven or hell. But I do think that there is something after we die. I don't know what it is, but I think that we go on after death.
