No matter what beliefs you hold, you will experience this along with every other human being.
The first experience would have to be the birthing process, if you sit and listen to any mothers’ group, you will hear the stories of what the experience was like for the mother or father but we cannot remember our own personal experience and maybe there is a good reason that. The second experience is the interment at the end of our lives. These two experiences are the only two things that we as a race or species have in common. Life and death are the two things that we will all go through. These two experiences are the only ones that we cannot actively share with another human being.
No matter what beliefs you hold, this experience will happen to you. All the proceedings that transpire in between these two happenings is called life. We fill up our lives with the things we desire and want. We choose our beliefs and the way we want to live. There are many common beliefs that we as a race tend to accept as true. There are many disagreements between people over the interpretation of certain beliefs too. Wars have started because of the differences. At the end of the day, we must live with knowledge that what we are doing is true; otherwise, we would not do it.
We have commonalities with many people whom we meet over the course of our lifetimes. We share the love and laughter with those who we call family and the ones we know well enough who have become our friends. This goodwill creates solid foundations to build firm alliances and strong bonds. When a body passes over, it is often unexpected and can come as a shock; people cry and are generally upset. When a person who has been ill is about to pass over, the tears still flow and the distress does not seem to lessen because we know it will happen soon. This also seems a very human trait, grief at the loss of a loved one; we will all experience these feelings at some stage and age in our lives. It is never a minor occasion but an experience we do survive.
