death

I used to believe…

When we were young my brother and I convinced my sister that when people died, they exploded and made a huge mess. She cried, it was great. She believed it until mom and dad found out and made us correct ourselves to her.

i used to belive that when you die you have to pass a test which tels you where you should go: in heaven or hell

I had a babysitter who warned all us kids not let the crumbs from our doughnuts to fall on the floor of her van, or her husband would "kill her". I imagined us all fending for ourselves, no babysitter to take us to the bathroom or give us snacks. I was scared to death.

I used to think that when people had heart attacks someone came and stabbed their heart

i used to believe that the stars would fall anytime soon and we would all die just like in the movie armagedon. my mum had to send me for counselling cos i was too afraid to sleep at nite.

I used to believe…

That if you hit the floor from a really big hieght in you dreams you die

I have thought, until fairly recently, that Euthanasia was 'youth-in-Asia'

I used to believe…

When i was about 4, my Pop died and my parents told me that he went to heaven up in the sky. From then on i assumed that people went to heaven on helicopters and each time i saw one i would get upset because i thought someone was about to go to heaven.

Back in university, my friend told me that when you see a white butterfly, it's the person's soul coming back to reassure loved ones... and every time I've lost someone, I've always seen a white butterfly come and fly about me... so I hold them i reverence....

One day me and my grandma passed by a cemetary and i asked her what it was and she said it was where they buried dead peoples bodies. So after that i thought that they buried the bodies and the family kept the head!

I used to think and believe that dead people if not properly buried in a well ventillated grave,they would suffocate and die over and over again with great suffering and pain.Consequently I was afraid even of thinking that someone who died would be buried.I preferred for them to be left out somewhere to decompose in the open.

I believed one of the greatest dangers you could face was quick sand. I was scared to death of it.

I used to think when they showed someone dying on TV (falling from a building, fire, etc) that the filmmakers had to get prisoners who were going to die anyway so they could get their shot.

i used to think that if ur animal died and u diddnt feed him after he died hed come back to eat u.

I used to believe…

When my Nana died I asked my Mum where does she go when she is dead. My Mum advised that she turns to "dust". It was my job at the time to do the dusting and I refused to do it as I didn't want to "dust" my Nana off the furniture etc.
