I don't say my Dad is in a better place, but i know he is not in pain now, and thats my comfort.
everyone has different beliefs, and comments made relate to those beliefs..take it as a comfort offered to you in an act of kindness...((((hugs)))

I guess because we feel that they are protected from more pain or any pain at all. The world has grown so dark, cold and scary that there must be a better place beyond life as we know it.

I say he is in a better place because my dad was in alot of pain. Now that he has passed he isnt in that pain anymore. Plus alot of stuff I have read makes me believe that he is in a better place. And Im not a religious person. I dont believe in a god, but I believe that are souls carry on to another dimension, and if you want to call that heaven its fine.

Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
