On death and dying - Written 10/23/01

I've always wondered what it was like to die. I hate to think about it, why? That question is easier, than the one I'm about to ask. I hate to think about death because I wouldn't want anyone in my family to die, now. What is it like AFTER you die? Will you go to hell? Or heaven? How do you feel when you are dying? The thing I wonder most is, what is it like to be born and then after an hour die? If that happened to you you'd possibly wish you were never born. How do you feel when you are killed? That question bugs me alot. It usually worries me so much I get queezy and I just can't sleep. Will someone ever answer my questions?

Dear 9 year old me,
We have not changed much. I still don't like thinking about death, nor have I accepted that we will eventually die. I doubt anyone will ever answer those questions, little girl. Not in our lifetime anyway. When we find out, it will be nice knowing that the two of us went through this life and death process together. I miss you, dear sweet little girl.
Love always, you.
