FOR THE QUICK AND THE DEAD...

Have u ever wondered what really happens to us when we die? As a Christians, we believe that our spirits go to heaven, purgatory or hell depending on how we lived - and to some extent is on our last "state of mind" or faith before we die - absolutions clears out all our bad deeds and we automatically go to purgatory or to heaven.
And so we are told that we better be good or else we go to eternal damnation - which I could not really fathom, just imagine a life of suffering forever, you will get used to it later on and it would not be suffering anymore? Isn't it? And really, no one has came back after death and tell for sure what really happens. So many religions, so many interpretations of life and death. Anyway, this I believe is true - this is my life here and now, I could not care less for what happens afterwards - - - heaven today is when I do good for myself and for others and hell is when I do terrible things.
Anyway, whatever it is - HAPPY HALLOWEEN to everyone.

Everytime I see death and life, my thoughts would simply say, "When you were born, you were crying and everyone around you was smiling, live your life so that when you die, you're the one who is smiling and everyone around you is crying".

Ano kaya ang itsura ng Purgatory? Pwede pa kaya mag blog dun?

Amen to that Jhaya!I concur with you sayng that heaven today is doing whati s good for others and yourself and hell is when you do things to hurt r put yoursefl and/ or others in misery.
I grew up with the Catholic doctrines from school and family. I was even active with a catholic teen community .As I grew older and saw the different facets of religion ( not to mention the variety of choices out there) I realized that religion is all about having faith and doing what you believe is good or bad.

Happy halloween!

this post reminded me of a quote by Schopenhauer..
"Each day is a little life; every waking and rising a little birth; every fresh morning a little youth; every going to rest and sleep a little death."
..maybe there is no life after death.. for death is the end of life. so why call it "life after death" just wondering.. well Happy Holloween! };p

hello everyone :) thanks for passing by.

Knoizki - basta ako when i die, i want people to be smiling and laughing and having a party ... para masaya, what's the point of crying diba - hindi naman ako mabubuhay ulit.

Para naman sozial na aswang ang dating...helooooooooo....

hi duke, pareho ttayo duke, it is just a matter of give and take and vice versa. just imagine the whole world - iba iba ang religion, and if they are not catholics then saan sila pupunta after death, just imagine?

hi velvetski, i love Schopenhauer's philisophy - he is the philosopher with a heart - o dieva.
