Shannon's Hamlet Post

There are many different ways that some one can die. There are the accidents liek getting hit by a bus, there are murders that, unfortuantly, these days are horribly curel. There is suicide when people decide that they just cant live any more. There are the deaths that we see comming and cant do anything about except live the life we have left. No matter what way some one dies, our society sees it as a neggative. Because no matter what some one is leaving and never to come back. Along with all that the loved ones who care for them will never see a loved one ever again. No one on this living earth knows whats beyond life, weather its the so called "heaven and hell" or if we roam the planet as gohsts or what ever after life theory that seems possible. Its unknown and its terrifying becasue its so unknown. Some people may be curious about it or eager to see how one may end up. But in the end im sure that the fact of not knowing anything about death is what makes it a neggative. Im not going to say that we should look at it as a "new beginning" or "its jsut that time" I hate death. Im not the person to lose people to death and recover from that easy. There are many ways however that people see it. I think that Shakespeare sees it as THE END. Almost all of his plays ends with some one in the end dying. This could be perfectly acceptable, in the sense that he is writing life stories so the only way to end a life story is to end the life. Death i think is one of those things that every one could have a certain opinion on it, untill it happens to some one close to you or to you. Death is one of the very little things that every living htink on this planet have in common. We all live, We all die. The way we die however is different in every way. Its a weird thing to think about death, people who seem interested in it are labeled as fucked up. people who refuse to talk about it are labled as scared. People who dont have and an opinion are labled as the sort who doesnt value life enough to think about death. The unknown factor of death is what makes it such a interesting topic and subject to deal with.

  1. A good post (one whose good insights probably deserve a little more attentiveness to spelling!). I like your focus on the 'undiscovered country'.
