Someone respond please

sorry to hear about how you feel, i don't think anyone knows for sure where we go when we die or if we see our loved ones again, but i believe there is an afterlife and you do see the people you have lost, i believe this because when my Nana passed away she waited for her daughter to arrive at her bedside(my mum), and said please can i go now my husband is calling me he said it is time we were back together so my mum said yes that's fine gave her a kiss and she closed her eyes and didn't wake back up! now her husband had been dead for 30 years and my Nana had lung cancer and couldn't talk properly for months but that day she made sense and she was looking up at the ceiling, now if there is no afterlife would she of done all that? i dont think so Jenny

Thank You so much for your reply Jenny. Ill add you to my friends and Ill leave you a message tomorrow.

ok no problem

Many people wonder about death nsully, and there are many conflicting stories about it. I once had the same feeling as you do, a fear of death and did not really understand it. But one thing we can depend on for answers to life is god's word, wouldn't you agree.

I think that God and Science are actually very compatible. I look at Science as a way that man tries to get to know God. And if energy is neither created nor destroyed, but conserved (Newton's [third]? Law of Physics)...then, reality starts to makes sense to me. This means that we come from energy and return to energy. The time we spend as humans is just so that we can attempt to understand and relate to that energy in another way. At least, that's what I believe. I'm not THAT scared of losing my individual self if it is absorbed into the whole of everything...something even larger than the universe. Does that make sense?

Aloha, I too was obsessed with worrying abut death. To the point that I began to lose enjoyment of each day that I awoke and all that was around me. I seeked professional help and came to realize that we can spend out lifetime worrying about when we die and what will happen, or we can spend our life enjoying each and every day to its fullest. After all, whatever happens once we die happens and we can't change it by worrying about it. Since then, I have stopped the worrying and began living!

I neglected to share something that also I find warms my heart and set my mind at ease about God or science. My grandmother was a very good christian her whole life (although it was hard and she was treated by her husband/eventually ex-husband). Nonetheless, she was always thankful and never waivered in her belief in God and everlasting life. She promised that when she passed she would give us a sign. Honestly, my grandmother was never more beautiful than the day she died. She had a smile on her face, he skin radiated and it rained softly and then the sun broke through in all it's glory. We looked to the heavens and told her we were glad she had arrived from her trip. If you believe there is a God.... there is. Never stop believing!

I think I started worrying about death back when I was in grade school...You see I am Catholic...That was when one of the nuns told us that the Pope had heard this terrible news from Our Lady of Fatima that the world was going to end at a particular time...From that day forward I worried...I used to worry that I wouldn't live old enough to have a baby...Worry that my parents would die before me...Just plain scared...Then when I grew up and had my children I worried that I would die before they grew up...Worried about us getting bombed and how could I carry all three of them...My husband was working a security job and he couldn't come home so I worried about that....

Now honey, I am older than dirt...Sure death is just around the corner but I no longer worry....It just isn't worth it....Your life will be wonderful...Just as mine you will worry but please don't do what I did and count your days when you cannot count that high....You will have a long and wonderful life like I have had one...You will probably fall in love and be all that you want to be....And my dear, years from now when you think of this you will laugh...You just may think of this older woman who told you this in a note on a Forum that you can't even remember the name of it....And her name? This you will never remember...Now I will refresh you....It is Caroline...

Be happy.....Be all in life that you want to be as I did....Love like the God's and treasure every second of your life....

I wish you well and send you all my love....

First thing you need to understand why we die. When God created the world and everything he made Adam who watch over the Earth, and then came Eve. He told them to not eat fruit from a certain tree in the garden but because they were tempted by the serpent, Satan, they eat the fruit and because they disobeyed God and by doing that God cursed mankind. And that's why we sin(do bad stuff) and die. But there is good new's. When Jesus was born God son, he died on the cross for all his chosen ones, meaning the ones he choosed to go to heaven with him because they repented in their sins and ask for forgivness will go to heaven with God FOREVER and I believe there is a heaven and hell, and when you die you face judgment, then if your written in the book of life you go to heaven by God's grace and if not you go to hell forever. It's a scary thought. But I have faith there is a God and there is a after life with him. I could go on and on about what the bible says but it'll take too long, so I'm just going to say repent for your sins, live to please God cause he is our creator, trust him and have faith in him and love him but only by his grace you are chosen. God doesn't save you for doing good works,but if you believe and try to follow him, not saying be perfect your okay. But I can't judge you only God. Sit down and open the bible to the new test. and start reading. Maybe he'll open your eyes to the truth. But your know when your saved. I know I'll get horrible comments back for writing this but I don't care but just remembered what I told you. What harm is it to pray to God and ask for forgiveness and read the bible for 20 minutes of your time. What is that going to do? Seriously, if you believe in him or not. Good Luck. Take Care.

Thank you all for your input. Its just rough believing because what if your supposed to believe in God so that you have a better life when really all that happens when you die is everything goes black. If thats what its like then someone played a dirty trick on us. I hope I didnt offend any of you. Im just so lost. I want to know. Does anyone have any interesting stories of faith? Angels? God? That they would like to share?

Well i had or think i had an encounter with an angel which i believed to be my Nana, It was a few years ago now when i was living at my mums and i had just broke up with my bf at the time so i was feeling really low i was actually thinking in my head like why does all things happen to me, why i loose my bf and i can't even talk to my Nana about it (this was what i was thinking in my head)at the time. I was in bed when this happened it was night time and i felt a rush of like cold air and i sat up in bed and the windows were closed my door was closed so i thought that's well weird but as i thought that i stopped crying and something in my head said your Nana is with you always and she loves you and i felt better about things i lay down and went sleep happy....

Now to me i think that was my Nana calming me down letting me know she will always be around for me whenever i need her Jenny

Yes, I have one that scared the hold living (whatever) out of me...My Father passed away at 59 and Mother at 79...Back about 12 years ago I was sleeping...I had a dream and it was my Father...He was in a white suit and standing at my bedroom door...He held out his hand and told me to come with him....He said it is time...I pleaded with him that I didn't want to come...I didn't want to leave my family and he told me that I would have another chance and left....

I think about this often and always will...I told my daughter about it and she got scared too...Somemtime I think I live on borrowed time...Whatever it was, I changed....

I guess I don't fear death....Sometimes life can be worse...It's a messed up world out there.....Besides that you can't change what you can't change....So each day I try and do everything in life that is good....Try never to get anymore black marks on my slate....And I truly cannot believe that I have lived this long in life...I will add to this that I am the happiest woman in the world...

Honey, don't worry....Make every minute count...

Much love,
Caroline

I often wonder that obviously if I am allowed to worry about death then there has to be something after death....It just seems like this cant be it....

Wow that would be scary! I couldn't imagine how i would feel seeing that!

I now like to think that my grandparents who are no longer here do watch over me and it's a nice feeling to have Jenny

Those are some interesting occurences. I often think about where we come from and why we were JUST created from thin air and all that jazz. I guess Ill never truly know what happens after death until I die and even then I may not know.

You shouldn't worry about it tho hun because it can end up controlling your life and you don't want that you need to have fun and enjoy your life while you can Make the most out of it Jenny

Im scared to even walk out in the street for fear of dying. Its not so much that Im scared of dying..Im scared that I wont see all the people that have died before me when I die.

Have you thought of maybe talking to someone professional about this? It seems like it's a real worry for you and you shouldn't feel this worried hun Jenny
