so i was wondering what're everyone's views on what happens after we die. do you believe in an afterlife or if not do you think anything happens?

I think when you die you see a light. That light leads to an old folks home for dead people. There is volleyball, horseshoes, and badminton for the dead people to play. When people see ghosts, it is a person who did not follow the light. That is why not everyone sees ghosts, because only some dead people do not follow the light. I'm really not sure if I believe this, but it is a pretty good concept.

You know I never thought that there an afterlife until recently when my father pasted away. I guess it comforts me to think that there is an afterlife and that my dad where ever he is hopefully happy.

if by badminton you mean Badminton Horse Trials, then i am all for it. i'm gettin' all misty-eyed thinking of it...a three-day that lasts for eternity...with no rain or bugs or injuries...
has anybody read 'the lovely bones' by alice sebold? i liked her concept of the afterlife. it's the kind i want when i die. if there is one. basically, everybody has their own heaven, and it changes itself to what you want, to a certain extent. people can look down and watch but can't interfere with mortals. it was interesting because despite all the talk of it being the character's heaven, there was no mention of any sort of deity.

one of my friends suggested that i read that after she read my journal entry referring to this question.
