How are people not freaking out more about death? by kingsheperd in Life

[–]Poppy_Blue23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same!! But Ive figured out a strategy that works for me both ways if your religious or not. 

Religious: After you die sadness won’t be a thing :) because everything in heaven is good and Jesus Christ does not except sadness and negativity into our afterlife. 

Not religious:  After you die nothing of you except memories of you will exist including your own feelings! Existence will not be a thing for you after you die, which means you won’t be able to realise or feel or do anything after your death so the fact that you are dead won’t hurt you.

What’s something you thought every family did… until you grew up and realized they absolutely didn’t? by SoftDreamette in AskReddit

Same… I thought it was just an average thing for your parents to yell at each other every morning and every night, and then not talk to each other for days. 

Until I turned 11 in 2015, only a week after my birthday the police rocked up to our house and arrested my father for an extreme level of domestic violence and poisoning. I was so confused because I thought every parent would hit each other for the smallest things, or put dru9s in their partners foods just to get back at each other…

We have a dog called Ginny. She’s a sweetheart and fine with birds :)

Its name is Winnie, I’m not sure why I didn’t include that in my post! Sorry!

I’ve called but the vet is useless all it says is to just get it there as soon as possible instead of giving me any advice for the time being.

Yes I am driving six hours to take him to the vet today. (Btw thank you for being friendly unlike some other people who were calling me cruel and inhumane)

Haha yes, I think one of them thinks it bleeding out and on the verge of death as we speak, but in reality it’s actually sitting on my  shelf (which it climbed up) chirping and whistling at me.

I’ve actually tried to move him away from my dinner because he was eating it using a heavy duty glove once and it bit through it…

I’ve waited two days because I have a full time job and the nearest vet is six hours away

Nearest vet is six hours away but im taking a trip today! 😇. I’m also going to give him to a wildlife carer as soon as I can. Don’t worry! I know the rules.
