Time For a New Question

Would it disturb you much if, upon your death, your body were simply thrown into the woods and left to rot? Why?

yes, it would bother me. I want my life to be celebrated, in all ways and that means "laying my life to rest." I know my soul will be in heaven, but my body, which i have worked hard to destroy :), should have a place to rest in peace!

and you?? :)

And you guys thought my DUCK story was a bummer. Geez.

Sorry - I don't want to explore whether Rob is naked or not. Lousy picture in my mind...

Yes it would bother me. Families and friends need a sense of closure when a loved one dies, and there wouldn't be a place where people could pay their respects.

Having a proper burial place would give them that sense of closure.

Actually, the thought of me "rotting" ANYWHERE really bothers me. My mind just can't comprehend it.

I would totally be pissed if I were just thrown away, I'm not garbage.
And this may have something to do with the Native American (small tiny bit) that's in me, but your soul/spirit lives on after death and you have to respect death and know that it's essentially a gateway to better things. All things, dead or alive, deserve to be respected and celebrated. It's simply a matter of respect, is all!
