This is a short blog. I simply would like you to describe what happens when you die.
I’ll kick it off. My name is Jim Bettag. I have been alive for 69 years, 6 months, give or take. I believe that I am composed of matter and energy. Matter is the physical body, flesh, bone, blood, everything that makes me visible. Energy is my thoughts that are unique and that are stored in the brain after I have experienced, “thought” them. They are my memories, my knowledge, wants, needs – any thought I ever had that is stored and processed by the brain. My energy is what defines me as the person I am. and is what I have learned over the course of my life.
When I die I believe two things happen. One, my body begins to rot and decompose or is cremated. Either way, the flesh and blood that made me recognizable is gone. My thoughts that are made of energy, will be absorbed by and become part of the energy that exists in the cosmos. When my thoughts are combined with the thoughts of all who preceded me I loose my individuality and all awareness will be gone. Game over.
OK, now its your turn. Please leave a comment (thought) on what you believe death is. I look forward to reading them.
me, myself & aye, yii, yii 
I believe that no matter what we think or hope, we’re going to find out anyway so why worry? 🙂
God Bless!

Prenin, I am very happy to see your reply and that you are still following my blog. I hope you are well and happy. You are quite right. What is, is and there is nothing any of us can do about it. Aristotle said the same thing when asked why he refused to discuss his views on death and an afterlife. There is no way to know except to die and I’m not that curious. Take care of yourself and write when you want. I am always happy to hear from a voice of reason. Jim.
