Born to Die, part ten

Roughly 155,000 people die each day. The human penchant for qualifying and categorizing deems some of these deaths more important or newsworthy than others. Those are the ones we hear about. The majority exit this plane of existence as anonymously as they entered it. Going back to an earlier contention that absolutely nothing is known about after-death, this selectivity on our part says far more about how we regard life. Thus, I think, is the tendency toward attributing reward or punishment to conceptualizations of an afterlife explained. So, I’m still left with the question, “What happens when I die?” I don’t know, and neither do you.
