Life After Death

I believe that life does not truly end when someone dies. My faith teaches about rebirth into heaven after one passes away on Earth, but there are more forms of life arising after death than just entering heaven. When a plant or animal dies in nature, its body decomposes and takes part in creating new life from the nutrients of its body. Within a family, as parents age, the peak of their life dies as their children's lives are just beginning. The parents will eventually leave this Earth while their children bring new life into the world when they have their own kids. As one chapter ends another one is always beginning, thus adding to the ongoing story of life on Earth.
