Humans share two realities with each other and all other living things--birth and death. I know it's been the church's traditional teaching for eons that both dying and death are the consequences of the first couple's rebellion in the Garden of Eden. But there's an alternative perspective I've written about in one of my books. It is a perspective far more consistent with Judeo-Christian teachings and certainly more consistent with nature and biology.
Don't try to deny how you feel about the person who died. Don't be afraid to think about them and about the good times you've shared together. If you have a creative streak, do something with it. Create something dedicated to them. A painting, a poem, a cross stitch work, anything artistic, do it and dedicate it to them.
If you contact a funeral home that is trying to sell flowers you should politely say no thanks. Many of the mom and pop funeral homes have been purchased by a just a couple very large companies . These companies maintain the local name but they operate very differently. The funeral directors working for the funeral homes get commissions on flowers that are sold, the funeral home also keeps some of your money as commission on your flower order instead of it going into the sympathy flowers. Worse yet the funeral home employees don't know anything about flowers, what is in season or in stock so you are paying a premium for lousy service.
Back to our views of death, where to they come from? We know they are taught to us by our family. There is also who we are that determines this as well. That intangible feeling we have in the pit of our gut. Some call it a conscience, but I see it as something beyond that. I see it as a set of rules that lies within the core of each of us. Through our entire lives we are witnesses to death. From the moment we enter the world to the point at which we become aware of the concept is the only freedom we enjoy from death during our lives. If we die during this time period than we leave this world never knowing the sadness of the death of others. Not just people either.
We depend on the State to protect us. The State provides police and fire protection, military protection, and protection against criminals. The courts were set up for this very purpose, to confine and punish those who harm others. When the crime is sufficiently brutal to justify the death penalty, and the evidence is sufficient to convict, then the State has the authority and the right to execute. Of course it does.
First, one may wish to see the lowest point of Death Valley, "Bad Water Basin". Death Valley is dried seawater lake. Deep down on the ground, there still be water, and it sometimes come out to surface. Cowboys who found this water source trying to drink it and found it "Bad". This is why this place is called "Bad Water Basin". The white part of desert ground is salt. Ones impression will be; "it is sea of salt". When one takes a close look at the surface of the desert, it does not look like a view in this world. It is light brown dry and cracked.
Have you ever had a colonoscopy? I have. I'm not sure what they injected me with, but I can tell you unequivocally that the minute that drug hit my bloodstream I was gone. I didn't feel a thing. Surgeons do horrible things to people every day, but the patients are oblivious to it all. They may wake up in pain, they may be sore for weeks afterward, but while the surgeon was carving them up, they felt nothing. NOTHING!
Besides, why would you want to live forever? Imagine if you were only a 100 year old. What would you do? Your friends are gone. Your husband/wife is dead. Your entire generation is dead. Your body is weak and you feel alone. All of that is a nature's way to say 'It's time to go' because death is a perfectly normal process in a cycle of life. It's just very inconvenient that we (humans) are smart enough to be aware of it. Although the fear of death is perfectly normal, try not to think about death, but enjoy every second of your life. Because you have only got one.
