Death, coping with loss.

I am on retreat today and one of the things we talked about was challenging ourselves to do something. So I have decided to deal with the death of my uncle. It has been very hard on my dad, and it scares me how much he has changed. Death is the end of our time here on earth, but I believe that theses is some thing more to what happens after death. We don't just start to pot away in the ground. We are exalted in God's glory, or whatever higher power one believes in. I don't know what lies beyond but i do know that it is better that this life. But the only way to get there is to live this life the best we can and hope that when it comes down to it we have done what we were called to do and it was our time to become bigger than our bodies.
