I want to believe. Or is that why we grieve.
not wanting them to leave.
I have to believe.
I crave for a sign.
from all who were mine.
I pray that in time
when i cross that line.
i know they will be just fine.

Topic: Grief

life after death.
I want to believe. Or is that why we grieve.
not wanting them to leave.
I have to believe.
I crave for a sign.
from all who were mine.
I pray that in time
when i cross that line.
i know they will be just fine.

Hi,

Sharp questions - requiring sharp answers!
Wouldn't we all love to know ........ then there's
faith ..... keeps a lot of us going - if not entirely
satisfied.

I understand totally what you're saying, but I
don't have an answer for you - except to say.....
Is this it? Surely not!

Welcome to YPDC.

I'm confused by the topic you chose to post this under. I am boldly assuming there
was a recent loss in your midst. If this is true, I am sorry for your grief. :(

The questions you have are age old and sincere and I wish, (as Tommy and many of us do)
I had the answers. Perhaps it's better not to know. In some cases, not knowing, is more safe
than hearing something we don't want to hear, you know?

Once the human experience is done, there has to be more. Why would we
learn so much just to have it die with us? No, I have to believe we carry it
on to the next "experience".

Great post and welcome to YPDC. Welcome, welcome. ^_^
