Has anyone ever been involved wit a Death Cafe? There is one that meets periodically near me and I always consider going, but haven’t yet. What do you think happens when you die?

You start to rot and people have to figure out how to deal with your absence in their lives and what to do with the body and how to get along without your emotional and/or financial support.

Death Cafes are just a way of openly discussing the practical matters related to that, and perhaps at least incidentally processing and integrating the reality of your own mortality, rather than avoiding it.

You may quote me: When I die I stop being. That's it. Game over. It was a good run.

I've been to a couple (one of which I was involved in organising.) They've both been very positive events, which those attending seem to have appreciated and got a lot from

What happens when you die? One set of chemical reactions stops and another begins. We go from maintaining homeostatic balances, keeping it all together as it were, to falling apart, rotting, and decaying. The atoms from our bodies become parts of the air and water and rocks and other organisms. Which is all as it should be, because that is from whence they came to us.
