Re: Funerals


I had to do something. I mean, a lot of the really lost ones could be our returning VETS with Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and if they were diagnosed with that....treated in a facility, then released. A lot of them I talk to feel like they were trapped. In jail and would rather freeze, or starve on the streets than have to go back there.
That is why so many do not seek aid.... emoticon
Breaks my heart...It's not much. And it freaks my Mother out, when I pull over, get out of the car and approach one. Hand them the bag and give them a hug....Just lets them know, someone does give a damn.
MOM ALWAYS MAKES ME...drown in liquid sanitizer afterwards! emoticon Poor MOM.... emoticon

You're welcome. emoticon Your family probably says you're nuts, emoticon but I don't think it's nuts to help people and let them know that someone cares. emoticon

Re:


I don't want a funeral or to be buried. I want to be cremated and have my family toss the ashes in the woods. emoticon I hate funerals, they are a waste of money. Yes they are for those left behind and I find that sad. I think that is the biggest reason people believe in 'God' and 'Heaven'. They are afraid of death, afraid of their loved ones really being gone forever. By saying they are in 'Heaven' they can comfort themselves and believe they will see them again. People can accept the reality of death and need something, religion, a grave, etc., to hold onto.

Re: Funerals


I agree that funerals are for the living, and that many people believe in one or more gods and an afterlife because they're afraid of death. I don't want to be buried in a casket, because that would be a waste of space that could be used to plant a tree or some crops.

If you must bury me, bury me in a forest or a field without a casket, so I can fertilize the ground. Otherwise, cremate me and send my ashes out to my friends around the world, so they can release my them into areas that are special to them. Instead of a funeral to mourn my death, have a party to celebrate the person I was. Don't give me a religious send-off, because it would desecrate my memory. I won't know what happens after my death, but if people know what I stand for and honor it, they will know they are honoring my memory, and hopefully they can find peace in my passing.

Funerals are for the living, but so are parties. Mourn my death in your own time, if you must, but instead of a funeral, have a party to celebrate my life. emoticon

Re: Funerals


I'd want a monument, to be preserved and put to mausoleum like pharaohs or Lenin emoticon

Re: Funerals


 emoticon @K...

I always thought a Viking funeral Or one like in Lord of the Rings....would be awesome! "Burn like the Kings of old". But then I had second thoughts on this....too much like burning at the stake. I may have already experienced that once. Don't really want those memories again, if I did! emoticon

LESA...this could be you...this urn comes biodegradable and has a tree seed inside...YOU would end up as a tree. emoticon

This Awesome Urn Will Turn You into a Tree After You Die


I also love Funerals in New Orleans'....talk about a party, parade included! emoticon
