Death (Something light!)

[Djpete]

I must admit I have been very down lately.
A month before we lost Rod my sisterinlaw lost her 17 yo niece in a tragic car accident.
My cousin is about to die at any hour and I have been visiting him the last week...cancer....he is now unconcious and hasn't eaten for a week.

I was searching on the web re death and different stages etc for my own info and got sidetracked onto an old favorite topic of mine...life after death.

I think if we are honest death is something we all think about at various stages in our lives.

I bumped into a thread somewhere where they were discussing this very issue and I stole these questions...
I should say straight up that although I was brought up Catholic I really do not have any concrete beliefs...if there was anything I would sway towards it could be Buddism.

Here we go...

What does it mean?
Why must we leave behind the ones we love? Why do they have to leave us?
Does love have a meaning?
Why must we die?
Why aren't we just living for eternity in some kind of heaven now? Or could existence be the purpose??
Who are we?
What are we?
Where are we from?
Are we here with a purpose? If so, then what is it?
Were we ment to be?
Does our existence have a meaning?
What does life mean??

You get the idea...now I'm off to Cleos for some r and r!

I would be very interested to hear viewpoints.
Cheers,
Pete
