Can we talk about death now?
Throughout history the subject of death is/was a taboo subject to discuss.I’m here to tell you it’s time.
It’s time that we openly discuss with our family,friends and in open forums about death after all -we ALL will at some point leave this physical plane or experience a loss at some point or other in our lives that will change the trajectory of our own lives.
Perhaps it’s time to change the negative connotations that surround the discussion of death and the dying process.The more we talk about death the less it gets pushed into the dark recesses of the psyche.
Only to be brought to the forefront by life changing happenings-usually abrupt.
What if we treated death in a way that,mimicked birth?What if we treated the natural processing of dying like a grand entrance into the world?
Why?Why Joma -Do we need to talk about it?
If we keep putting our heads in the sand as if the inevitable isn’t going to happen,the likelihood of having a “good death” will not come to fruition.
Have you ever asked yourself-
“What if I die tomorrow?”
The chances of you answering yes to that deep question are highly probable.
But the chances of you actually expounding on the matter is another.
I pride myself as a death advocate.Not in manner in which you probably think though.
(I am NOT 100 percent committed to the idea of euthanasia of humans.)
I am a death advocate for people who understand that they should be allowed to make their own decisions on how THEY want to die.Not how their family,doctors believe they should.The more you self advocate for yourself early on in life the greater understanding and control you have when it comes time.The time is when you are of clear and sound mind to make decisions for yourself.
Many people think that talking about death is morbid.However-when you look at physical death from a different prospective you open the door in your waking life for great changes daily.What will be your legacy you leave behind?
