Wow congratulations Maisie ;D Wabbit i dont think people think like that when they loose someone or a animal close to me. I know when people and animals i have loved died i dont think of the afterlife, i think of the now and how upsetting it is. Congratulations Maisie! Im so glad youre happy! He is a lovely guy! We both liked him immediately! I think youre right Fez. Its difficult to think of anything else apart from how much you miss them when they go. When Abbey, my little ginger cat died, all I could think of was how she suffered the last couple of days before she died (she had lost 75% of her lung capacity) and how much I missed that little animal that just shadowed me wherever I went, who would practically leap into my arms in delight when I came in from work. I dont think I will ever have that relationship with another animal. She was my little soulmate.

I know when people and animals i have loved died i dont think of the afterlife, i think of the now and how upsetting it is. When my loved ones die, it helps me a lot to believe that I'll see them again someday. I don't know how people cope with death who believe that death is the final end. It would be so hard to think of the people and animals I loved that they're gone forever.

I kind of agree maisie, i do like to think that there is something, i didnt mean to sound like death was final, sounds quite sad like that, i was more concerned about this comment Quote As far as their deaths, it may be sad, but we all go, don't we ? end Quote. Just didnt think saying something like that would help in a situation when people are feeling heartbroken.

It doesnt help me in that complete moment of anguish when you realise they are not here anymore. Now, a few years down the line, I can hope I will see Ab again, but for a long time I just missed her desperately. Indeed when Feral's little cat died, I cried all over again, not just for Feral and her cat because I knew exactly how she was feeling, but I cried for me and poor Abbey. I sometimes look at Soldier and think it wouldnt take much to make him very ill (with the FIV and all) and I think I couldnt bear another death, but thats the way it goes isnt it. I am glad he chose us. Well, he and Pob bonded first. He wouldnt have been my first choice if Im honest, but after a week of living with him, I was besotted with the grumpy ole thing. ;D The dreaded Patrick I was in love with from the moment I met him and despite his horrendous habits, I love him still.

It would be so hard to think of the people and animals I loved that they're gone forever. that's exactly what my post was about, life & death are intertwined & altho it is sad when someone dies, it's not the end of it. i never said don't be sad just that it's "easier" for me to accept it due to my philosophy, just like maisie. also, like i said in that post, this belief is part of the chore reason why i'm vegan : if anyone can reincarnate either as human or an animal (don't forget that humans are mammals), then why the hell would one want to eat a relative ? or a friend ? and I agree with maisie, if the animals & ppl in our lives have been there in previous ones & will again, it's rather comforting.

Not sure about reincarnation. Not sure about any of it actually.

Not sure about reincarnation. Not sure about any of it actually. finished cleaning the place, also went shopping, preparing for bday party - family coming over. Taking a break now. As far as reincarnation goes, tabs, one believes in it or not, just like any other spiritual topic, one has or doesn't & may change mind, or not. My personal experience & many testimonies have showed me that it's real, but i'm not here to tell you that you have to believe me because i say so. To each person a path to take through life & a spirituality to develop - which many refuse to, or confuse with religion, but this is a whole other topic, and might not be part of this forum's goal to discuss. I just wanted to share my personal opinion, not to criticize or stir bad memories, but try to broaden views & maybe help with a better acceptance of death & thus mitigate the sadness factor.

Perhaps we should have a Spirituality type thread to stick this sort of stuff on.
