Death

Death is probably one of the most tragic things than can occur in one's life. Quite frankly, it is one of the hardest things to understand. When a loved one or someone you know passes, the question most frequently asked is why? Why did it have to happen to this person? Why did it have to happen to someone I loved? Why them? All these questions are asked and sometimes, no one knows the real truth. I am still young and death hasn't affected my life that much yet. But when they day comes where someone real close to me passes, I really do not know how I am going to handle it.
     Death can happen for many types of reasons. I believe that god decides when it is your time because that is how I was brought up in life. I also believe that there is a purpose behind a person's death and that god decides if it is your time at the exact moment or not. You can face a near death experience, but you get through it because that isn't the way you are supposed to go out on. There are so many people who live on this earth. I do not know the correct number to be exact, but death is not nature's way of making room for more people on the earth. There is plenty of room on earth, so that is not true at all.
     I believe that there is life after death. You rather go to heaven or hell, based on how you spent your life in the real world. Your soul is still on earth visiting your loved ones and watching over them as well. Once your soul does what it needs, it finally passes over and is in heaven completely. Why do I think this? Because this is how I was taught, and my parents have provided me with real life stories that make me believe this is all true.  Im really not sure whether or not you are reincarnated or not, but I can see it being true. I think you have to wait a certain amount of time though. You have to wait however long you spent time on earth to be reincarnated. If you died at age 85, in 85 years you will be reincarnated.
     I will never know the truth until it is my time to go. Stories could and have convinced me, but I am still not one hundred percent if they are true. I know that my family, and even me, have had ghosts of people we have known come back and visit us. My parents have experienced it the most just because they are open about it and are not afraid. If you are scared and not open, you will never experience it. I wish I could live forever, but that will never happen. But I am eager to see what lies ahead after it is my time to go, just so I can find out the real truth.
