What does death mean to you? Does the idea of not existing ever cross your mind and if so, does it frighten you? Have you ever had an experience that has made you appreciate your life more? Has there ever been a time that has made you realize how beautiful life is? What makes life so special?
when i think about death i think about what happens after u die wher do u go what happens to your spirit i think You decide when your soul is going to go back to the ether. It’s not random. You don’t just get hit by a bus or get cancer or slip in the shower. On a soul level you make the decision as to when you’re going to go home. You generally do this after you’ve fulfilled the course outline for your life, the one that your higher self has been hanging on to. If you’re lucky, you’ve fulfilled all the tasks on your “to do” list. If life overwhelms you, then perhaps you’ve decided to end it all prematurely. But most people go home when the time is right. You don’t have to decide how you die, just that you are going to and the universe takes care of the rest. So, you decide the when and the universe decides the how. When someone you know dies, take comfort in knowing that it was a choice.
