Death Is Nothing But Feelings

So we are going along nicely in life. No big bumps or dents, no accidents or hospitalizations BAM! A death. All the swears and frustrations come out. The WHY him? Why her? Why me? Why us? What if he would have taken a different route? What if she had not gotten that surgery? What could we have done differently that might have saved her? Sorry, folks. Death is not up to us, and neither is un-death. That is what is shocking. No warning. No re-do. Nothing but feelings.

Oh so true. It's such things that help to build our character and inner strength. We visit the depressing and disparaging dark side in order to see the light on the other side.

You have aptly spoken the TRUTH! No go backsies. So we must walk forward doing our best. Blessings to you and really sorry if this is something you recently experienced. We just never know, do we!

It is something quite a few of my friends have experienced. Not believing in death at all, helps me quite a bit. Only the body, and I feel pretty confined in mine right now.

Certainly our feelings...not the dead...we may or may never know what the dying felt during and afterwards... at the end we really don't have much but feelings to remember...

It is weird how the feelings survive, and I assume go along with your soul.
