death

i don't think that i'm thinking too much abt death, but i have had a few thoughts over the past couple of wks. this one is more of a "am i sane?" type of thought....

why do people write msgs to their deceased loved ones on facebook? i'm not trying to be insulting in any way, i'm simply trying to understand. do they think the deceased is actually READING fb?? bcs i don't think so. or maybe they are just writing their thoughts to evoke support from their friends. if it's the latter, i TOTALLY get it.  ...but maybe they should write it to their audience...that these are my feelings...

??

another question:  when people write something and other's respond w/ "you're in my prayers", is it true?? are the people truly saying a prayer for that person? or is just a nice thought. i have a hard time writing it, unless i KNOW that i'm goign to take a moment and seriously say a prayer for that person. sometimes i will, but sometimes i'm not in a position to do that. and i know that in my heart of hearts i'll forget later, or maybe i don't even necessarily agree that a prayer is warranted. am i crazy?? or mean??

last question: why do people visit a grave? do they believe the spirit is there waiting for them? do they believe that's a portal to the other side?? perhaps it is, this is a sincere question. i just wonder bcs i would imagine that they are busy doing what they need to do on the other side of the veil.

what do i know? very little... these are just a few thoughts...
