Death is an inevitable phenomenon in which all creatures--may they be humans, animals, or plants-- go through in one way or another. These dead creatures leave the physical world and go to a specific place still beyond the reach of human experience. Religious writings say that the destination of those who passed away is either heaven, for those who do good, or hell, for those who perform otherwise; some adding another, the purgatory. Nevertheless, the query that must be raised is.. do dead creatures, specifically the humans, permanently leave the earth?
As for me, death is a pause of life. This means that when a person dies, he/she tentatively goes to a world of unknown. It is only the human body that goes; making the spirit and the soul remain. Dead persons do not disappear permanently; for eventhough ordinary people cannot see them, they can still feel their presence. This is not a mere speculation, for many documented true-to-life stories prove that there are people endowed with precious abilities who can see, hear, feel; and even communicate with dead people.
Hence, for me death is never the opposite of life, but the extension of it. Only the dead's physical body leaves through a process of decomposition; but their spirit and soul still reach those who they love, cherish and care for. :))
