i really and truly believe this. people don’t die. our bodies do. but who we are, our souls, our characters, our essence, our existence doesn’t end there. these bodies we dwell in are just temporary. in a book i read, it said that even after we “die”- our hearts stop beating, we stop breathing.. our brain still lives on for a few minutes after before running out of oxygen. so, even when our bodies, these “capsules” we’ve been temporarily given, run out of time, we are still thinking. we have thoughts, we have feelings- our minds still exist. people never really and truly die.
