Do we remember before we were born? No of course we don't. I'd love the idea of an afterlife to be true though
The thought of a heaven where you live in this blissful utopia, and get to be with all your friends and relatives who've passed away sounds like an awesome thing.
It's so awesome that it sounds too good to be true sadly. Sadly i have a feeling that this is the only life we've got, and we need to try and make the most of it.
To me death sounds like what it means death, the end of everything. My own feeling is that dying is basically just like falling asleep and not waking up ever again. I'm ok with that, although i hope that there is an after life.
Dying is not something i fear, although i obviously am sad about the effect such a thing will have on my family and friends. All i know is that when we die, we're either going to be cremated, or end up in a box and be covered by dirt and rocks.
Outside of that i haven't got a clue what happens, and anyone who claims that they do is a total and utter bluffer.
