Sometimes I wonder, if you were to die (well, you’ll die one day anyway) what will happen?
Will you just die thats it, the end… end of your story, no one will remember you, no one will try to bring you back to life. It’s like a big “THE END” word smack directly on your face.
Or like the chinese, you drink some tea, cross a bridge and reborn into someone else…
Or you’ll be judged… either you enter heaven or hell
Or you’ll be sent straight to hell to receive your punishment and after all your punishment, which I heard it last for hundreds or thousands of years, since 1 day here equals duno how many hundreds years in hell, you’ll be sent down back to earth and reborn…
Some said you must have done something nice, that’s why you have such great life now, or something bad, so you have a bad life now
Some said you are borned into the word as a punishment, to choose to continue doing stupid things, or make things up in this new life, so you can stop the cycle and enter heaven as soon as you have done enough…
Or my favourite, with my imagination, you’ll just die, awake in the sky, on the white clouds. You stood up, there is a wooden bench with a lamp post next to it, and there is a man sitting there, smiling at you. You don’t know why, but you approached him, sitting next to him. He started with, “How are you?” and you go “I don’t know… am I dead? who are you? god?” and hes like smiling with the smile of thousand loves saying, “Yes, you are dead, and I’m god” and he smiled again. You didn’t cry, you didn’t try to remember what happen. You didn’t worry about what you have left behind, mum, dad, siblings, best friends, lovers, pets, favourite stuff like clothes, books, pc n etc. You have nothing to worry about. As if you have learnt to let go, leave everything behind, feel the peace that you are in right now… all these with just his smile. You felt the comfort you have never felt before, love which is unexplainable, relaxed like a baby.
Then you started chatting with him. You asked him a lot of stuff, well, personally, I have a lot of things I want to ask got. Such as is it true Adam and Eve are the first humans on earth? Does dinosaurs looked the same way as our scientist predicted? Is there other humans or creatures outside of our solar sistem? Did any of them actually made their way to earth? Was Alexander the great gay? Well, a lot more, I just can’t think of any more right now.
The he asked about hows life down there… you told him everything, friends, school, work, life, every little things, your deepest secrets, embarrasing moments, personal stuff… since he is god, he knows everything, even if you tried to lied, but you just didn’t, it seems like you can’t lie anything like a children. you just blurt out everything without thinking the consequences (well, not that god will tell out to anyone…. would he?) and you don’t mind, just blushing a little when talking about it. And there he is, like a best friend… listening and understanding. As if you both have known each other for life, talked everyday casually. After talking, he just smiled at you. Even if its just a smile, it seems that you understand what hes trying to say. (Well, im imagining that gods telling you its time, not directly, but you just seem to understand as if you’ve done it before even if its your first time) You just close your eyes, you get a flashback of everything that you have tried your hardest to remember, moments which is so wonderful but you have forgotten… Your mum and dad, what they have done for you when you are a baby. Then tears wills start to flow off your eyes. Your brothers and sisters, cousins, aunts and uncles, your best friends, loved onces, all the sweet memories is being play back in your mind… and at the end, instead of going crazy shouting, “I DON’T WANT TO DIE! PLEASEEE” or “I WANT MY MOMMY OR DADDY”, you just say…
“Thank you and goodbye”
with the most peaceful final smile of yours. Then you dissapear… forever… (try imagining a body floating in the sky, and you can choose either
a)fade out and disappear
b)flash and spread into diamond-like shape and spread n slowly disappear
c)well, dont disappear but remain intact, dont fade off either, instead, you felt like you flew to somewhere, you opened your eyes and went eh? with that stupid blur face of yours, you asked the man and lady infront of you, what’s going on? They smiled back, you recognized those faces, it is you parents which came here earlier than you for # years. You leaped and hug them… and yada yada and you get happy ending where everyone unite again forever this time…
wtf… I think I’ve watched too much movies and think too much, more sleep is better than more thinking
Well, yeah right, I wish that would be my ideal after life. If C is impossible, a nice peaceful final chat to let go everything seems cool too.
But, to tell the truth, I’m really scared that if we die, we’ll just die, the end, game over… no more part two or so… no more reborn. Right now, I have a lot of things yet to be done… lots of things yet to see, yet to enjoy, yet to catch up with. Family and friends, not enough sweet memories with them, not enough time spent with them. My hobbies, lots of things I haven’t tried or archieved. Worries for other people, like did dad took his medicine like a good boy, mum stayed happy and doesn’t stress too much without me around, did bro graduated and got a good job, does sis get a good husband? Did my youngest bro studied well and changed into a better person? Did they all feed and take care of the dogs and DON’T BULLY THEM AT ALL? Did my face look good at the coffin? Will I feel hot if they decide to burn me to ashes? Or will bugs crawl on me when I’m buried after some time. And the list goes on. Who will take over my pc after my death??? I have thousands of pictures of all my friends. Pictures taken when we go crazy together, holiday together, celebrate something together, or just plain bored together that we took picture. I won’t do this but I know some people who does this, what if you have some naked pictures you have taken with ur partners or ex- bf/gfs or with somebody that you do not wish anyone in the world saw it. Oh shit, I think we’ll probaly go bargain with god… “oh god, can you just give me like 10seconds and send me straight to my pc? I need to delete some stuff before I go, I don’t want them to see those, oh wait, maybe 20seconds cuz I don’t know where i hid those files. Nvm, can you just strike a thunder straight to my pc and burn the whole hard disk?, no wait, that won’t work, my kids have their pictures of their trip last weekend stored inside there. *stress* x999 THAT MEANS IT IS VERY HARD TO LET GO
Will I be able to let go…?
Will you?
