WHAT HAPPENS AFTER WE DIE?

It may be a profound question for many but the answer is quite simple.

Well, from what I've seen working as a Nurse and assisting in Post Mortems, etc, as well being present at the odd exhumations, it AIN"T very pretty at all what happens AFTER we've 'fallen off the perch' to say the least.
I've been at the bed-side of many patients as they've died, never once seen anything remotely resembling a 'soul/spirit' departing the corporeal body UNLESS you wish to count the body evacuating 'waste' that is.
And an exhumed corpse is TRULY a rather disgusting, smelly and quite rank sight in deed.
I could be considered as quite cynical or even worse, BUT, when at a Funeral/Burial and the Priest raves on with " In the sure and certain Hope of Resurrection" bit, I always smile inwardly to myself thinking HOW can HOPE be sure and certain in the first place.

not much I would imagine 😉

After you die the world will continue to exist, and your body will either be cremated or mummified or otherwise eaten by maggots. Anything else you want to know.

I don't have any questions any more. Feel bad that I asked. 🙂

I know what will happen in my case if I die in a normal country (if not kidnapped, murdered etc.)

  1. My medical power of attorney and the last will will kick in
  2. Organs will be donated
  3. Body will be cremated at the lowest cost possible
  4. All belongings (clothes, papers) will be burnt too
  5. Ashes will be thrown in a dust bin
  6. Personal cash and belongings of value will be donated to orphanage or a local charity
  7. 10 original death certificates will be obtained
  8. My surviving family will celebrate doing anything of their choice (eating out, party, movie) immediately
  9. No mourning will take place, no tears shed
  10. No rites - religious or otherwise will be performed
  11. All personal belongings at primary and other homes will be donated

I write a special travel will each time I travel and keep in the laptop bag I carry.

Someone you know comes and meets you and tells you it’s time. You walk off together toward the light at the end of the passage and catch up with each other on the way. You get to the end of the passage, have a review of your life and then dissipate into some other consciousness. That’s as far as I got.

Best response I've heard to date:
"A garage in Cleveland".

We were spreading the ashes of my partners late father in a little ceremony at a beach in S.W. Scotland where he was evacuated to during WW2. We parked our car about 100m from the beach and as we walked to it a cat appeared from a nearby wood mewing loudly and accompanied us. It stayed with us during the short ceremony and back to the car park afterwards then just walked away and disappeared from view.
If I believed in reincarnation there would be no doubt that the man had returned as a cat. Ironically during life he hated cats.

From what I have heard, you let out a big fart, shit your pants, and never have to worry about constipation again . . .

Organ donor followed by cremation.

In my will, I asked for my ashes to be spread in my beloved Cascade Mountains. I don't care if my daughter drives to Stevens Pass, walks six feet into the woods, dumps the ashes and leaves.

My married daughter Claire, 29, will receive $100,000 from my life insurance policy. In my will, I asked that it be used for her house or college expenses.

There is no "you".

Back to the earth from which we came. I’m cool with that. Even if it were possible, I wouldn’t want to live forever. One lifetime is enough.
