People are being born and dying all over the world, right now, on this day, in this moment. Here in Ohio, it's a rainy, foggy, gray day. Today is my cousin's birthday, and it is also my old pastor's funeral. I am only going to the birthday party, because no one in my family is going to the funeral (my mom is setting up the lunch afterwords at our church, so she won't have time to).
Discuss life and death.

I found the day of my grandfather's funeral to be gorgeous and somehow appropriate. It was early in the morning, when there was still a small bit of mist clinging to everything around us and the sun was streaming through the trees to create long lines of light everywhere...Granted, I was bawling my eyes out, but the memory holds regardless.
I'm afraid my grandmother might soon be joining him.

I like funerals on days that are really pretty opposed to rainy gloomy ones. I don't know why. I just think rainy days for funerals are somehow wrong... Regardless of what most other people think.

I like them because it's like a sign that live goes on after you lose someone - you don't have to forget them, but the pain of their passing won't stay forever. Or perhaps it's the person's way of telling you it's alright to be happy again. smile

Cycle of life, man.
We should celebrate both life and death.
Both are beautiful.

He destroyed my life...
I'm not allowed to funerals anymore.
I feel the souls of the dead and get hyper. xd
I like death.. to be honset.. It brings peace to the suffering, and everyone suffers.
Birth is just bring a life into the world, just waiting to be screwed up.
Now I will destroy him.

I always would rather go to an occasion for a dead family or friend rather than an alive one, this is because if you think about it, it will be the last thing you can do for that dead person, why not pay respects? A birth-day happens every single year, the final day to show public respect will most likely be that day.

♫The only death that I have experienced
of the people that I was close to is my
dog. He was a good dog, too. He was a
black lab, about 18 years old. He had lyme
and was going blind. He couldn't stand, and
my dad had to carry him outside to let him
go. We cremated (sp?) him, but on the last
night, we all got sleeping bags and laid around
him. T.T A few weeks after that, I didn't really
sleep at all/well. I actually started to lay
on his dog bed. o.O What really made me
feel better was that I made a collage of pictures
of him & put funny captions on them. One of
the pictures was of him standing outside, and
he stood funny, so the caption read something
like, "Could you please go? 'Cuz I'm trying to!" xD

Aw, man I know how losing your dog hurts. I've seen lots of deaths, but the one that effected me the most would be my dogs. I feel kind of bad saying that, since I've lost my grandparents and stuff, but... I had that dog since before I was born. She protected me. She comforted me. She was my best friend and slept by my bed every night. Her death crushed me, because I never really imagined her being gone. I'm still sad about it, and that was over three years ago.
