Well.......I think if you really think about the dead person and maybe do something like praying for her at home it is ok not to go....you have to decide.....

If you would go just to show you are there it would be more hypocritical than thinking and praying.....

I've never been to any...

i never went to any funeral until i got to my orchestra, and from that day on i've been to over 50, and i'm ashamed to say but i got use to it, espectially cus there are some mental ppl in my orchestra that do all kind of jokes to keep us lightened during ceremony's (not jokes about the dead person).. but sometimes it's really hard..like if young person has passed..it's really hard and i go through it really intensly.

 

actually the first funeral i ever been too alone, so without being in orchestra, was my granmother's last summer. at it was tough.

They dont haunt you' date=' thats a stigma in the brain brought on by feelings of severe pressure (Or guilt).[/quote']

 

But if you don't feel any guilt or feel anythign of anything for that person then everything's allright?:huh:

 

Anyway, I ended up going..a little late but I still went. There wasn't a lot of people there anymore and I saw one of my ex-friends there. It was akward because she started talking to me and I didn't really wanted to talk to her, but I didn't say anything because I thought it was inappropriate to talk about it there.. :\

This might sound weird but I enjoy funerals.

 

I mean, my grandads was great. It wasn't a mourning of his death it was a celebration of his life and what he did and how he was going to a better place (he was blind his whole life, so it was pretty much about how he'd be going to a world of colour and he'd be able to SEE us from up there).

 

I have that approach to funerals though, focusing on good memories instead of dwelling on the sadness. Everyone's different though.

I don't want a funeral for myself. Whatever my family wants they can do, but I don't care if people go to my funeral or whatever. Sure, I'll appreciate the people that were there to comfort my family and all but personally I don't want people going to a funeral about me.

I've only been to one funeral. It was of a family member I was very close to, and I was dreading it. I even considered not going.

 

But i decided to go, and actually letting myself cry after bottling it up for a while was good for me. It helped me let go.

This is the first time I heard of this group

Suddenly showing up at your door:

 

Do you like it when people all of the sudden show up at your door without letting you know they were coming or at least called?

 

I HATE IT! Makes me wanna turn off all the nights off :laugh3: :sick: No, it doesn't bother me to have people come over, but it does bother when they don't call.. what if I'm about to leave you know?:rolleyes: :dozey:

haha! A bozo thread made by liqiud sky and i was here to catch it!

I like when peolple come without call me! Its a nice surprise!:) always that the person be a friend or a person that I want to see.... and if I have to go, I tell them "oohh I have to goo! go to your home! hahaha! :D

darn you

I hate it! I think it's rude just to show up at someone's house. But I'm usually busy sleeping so if you just show up at my house you will either:

1. be greeted by a very angery, very sleepy Casey or

2. not be greeted at all. :D

ACK! My computer hates me. Sorry guys.

Triple post sorry! :)

come to my house unannounced. it's fine, but I'm not going to let you in :smug:

:stunned: that's so mean! :disappointed:

depends on the person and what im doing. but usualy if its someone i like i love it. nothing like someone you like showing up specialy when im sad or bored.

I don't mind it at all, it just makes me happy because it's a nice surprise as Anita said :wacko: well..people who knock on my door and and want to sell me things don't make me happy...

haha! yes! :rolleyes:

once one man whop waas asking for something to eat knock in my door , i gave him bread and he said " No I dont want bread i have a lot of it!!" and he let it in my house door, that meda me very angry and sad!

what? that's rude! he should be grateful and happy that you gave him somethinig at all

yes!! I know! I feel the same way when he said taht!!! :angry:

mean person who doesnt need nothing to it he just want money to buy whine and cigarrets!!! :cry:

stupid person...wine and cigarettes makes you feel sooo much better....:rolleyes:

lol

 

i dont have any of my friends coming over unannouced... we usually call or msg eachother before we do that... actually we dont really spend much time at eachothers houses anymore... we go out more...

it would indeed be a nice surprise once in a while... maybe a bit intrusive lol...

 

maybe if my life was like Neighbours, it would be like that... :wacko:

I love it when people just show up, you're like woah and then cool....most of the time.
