Quoted from Think and Grow Rich: “Accept death as a natural, unavoidable transition of energy and matter, rather than a true end, freeing one to focus on living fully and achieving goals, as life energy merely transforms, not disappears.”
I wanted to create a list to ground myself of this truth and experience true acceptance.. I know I am only 27 but I know not when my last day is and entirely too aware of how unfair and uncertain life can be. Fear of death will NOT be a fear of mine..
- I want to know I left the world as someone remembered for caring and loving deeply … extending not only to people who personally knew me but also to strangers, coworkers, friend of friends, etc. but also someone who had strong boundaries, and prioritized mutually beneficial relationships/ friendships and did not tolerate anyone treating me with disrespect or treatment I did not deserve
- I would hope that I had children, and a family that loves one another and seriously enjoys eachothers company. I would hope I birthed at-least 2 best friends who would go through life together till the end..☺️ but if not that’s okay!! 🫶🏽
- I, of course, like many would love to willfully move through life with the hope that I would live a long, long life but if it is the case that I don’t— (I go back and forth all the time on this) I would be curious as to what led to my invite to the afterlife.. Was it something that I did wrong, a fatal mistake? Was it my health? Was it an accident of some sort (insert x10000 ways to go) 😭 Honestly though it does not matter in the end— I would even say that fixating on how someone I loved passed on has made my grieving process all the more insufferable and painful. Death is inevitable. *Inhale, exhale*
- I pray that I atleast left after being my self-actualized self- accomplishing more than I could have ever imagined.. finances in order with great assets to keep my family (even those I’ve yet to meet) afloat
- I believe in God— I would hope that I meet Creator and experience peace, love and light at incredible heights unbeknownst to those of us living in the world.. 🌎 and be reunited with those I have lost and play catch 🆙
I give myself permission to grow this list as I age! Lol bc I just know I will have more to ponder on about the afterlife.. Talking about it = processing = less / no fear of death
