Death

Are you afraid of death?
What death is like ?
Some says it brings tremendous fear, grief and torment.
Some says it is peaceful, happy and joyous.

Last night was a long night for me. I tossed and turned in my bed, while the thought of death twirled in my brain like socks in a dryer.

As a Catholic Christian, I believe in the existence of Heaven, Purgatory, and Hell. When a soul leaves the body, it will head towards one of the destination. For eternity.

Heaven is a place where a soul will find eternal peace, joy and bliss. The love of God so intense, song of praises all day long, feasts and banquets in the house of God. A place where there will no longer be pain and anger, no hunger and poverty, no anguish and bitter pills. This is a place where everybody on earth longs to be in after death.

Purgatory is a place where impure souls will have to purify themselves before entering heaven. These souls are not banished from God's kingdom, they are not sentenced to Hell, they are just not pure enough to enter to the Gates Of Heaven. In this place, they will experience the grief of not being able to see God's glory. The people on earth will have to offer prayers for them, so that their souls may find peace soon.

Hell. Hell. Hell. Is the most horrible.place you can ever imagine. There are anointed people who have been chosen by God to enter Hell and come back to life again to spread the good news, described hell as a place of unimaginable torment. The souls are trapped in hell, pleading and begging for mercy, while some curse and spit in the name of God.
The demons torture them with fire, serpents eat and tear their insides apart, sharp blades are pierced into their body over and over again.

So , are you afraid of death ?
Well to be frank, I am. Life is too fragile. You never know when is your turn to leave.
There are so many things that I havent achieve, so many places I've never been, so many words unspoken, so many leaps not taken.
