1 I believe that after death either there is an afterlife (heaven/hell) or the truth is known only to God. 2 This belief comes from my religion, family upbringing, and my own thoughts. It has slightly changed over time. 3 It sometimes gives me comfort and sometimes makes me think deeply, but mostly I see it in a positive way. 4 It encourages me to do good actions and live my life in a better and more responsible way. 5 I would tell my friend that it’s okay to feel scared because no one really knows what happens after death. I’d remind them that whatever comes next, they don’t have to face it now, and they should focus on living peacefully in the present.
