I’m scared to die.
What if everyone was wrong? What if there is no Heaven and that really is the end of it? Or worse, what if it’s not the end of it? What if when we, by definition, die just our body dies and we are trapped in soul inside a dead body forced to continually suffer in never ending pain? I have been questioning myself a lot lately. I am religious to a certain point, however sometimes I just don’t know. I want to believe that there is life after death, good or bad, and so one. Some people may say that my questioning of religion is the first “no,no” of religion but isn’t that the reason we are who today? I mean if it had not been for questioning what you’ve been told and raised by we would not be as diverse a world as we are. I think one of the reasons I might even be thinking of this, is my own religious background. I’m not going say what it is because as much as it sounds, it has nothing to do with any one religion. From the day I was born, I have been exposed to my familiar religion. I was never given a choice on what I believed in or not. I basically was told what I am supposed to believe in. I love my family very much and not saying that exposing your religion to your children is bad but the weird thing is that most Moms and Dads these days are always ranting on about how we should be who we want and should be our own person, as diverse and unique as possible, and one of the major things that I think everyone has heard is: “Don’t let ANYONE define who you are, you are in charge of that and you are the only one who gets a say” Yet when the topic of religion comes in to play, that attitude fade’s away and quickly changes to anger, fear, and the shere will to “…not talk about that”
