About ve years ago, Richard Boomer, a local resident started a newspaper called, Lakeview Area News. Unfortunately, a few years after, Mr. Boomer died. His family, the editor (Linda Huckins), and the will staff carried on with the paper until last week when the newspaper had to close. It is very interesting to observe the lifecycle of an entity such as the Lakeview Area News. Like a living thing, the newspaper was born, it came into existence, and it matured and then died. We are born, we mature, and then we pass. There is much debate about the afterlife and if there is a fore life. There are lively arguments about the concept of reincarnation, past lives, and genetic memory. There are reports of people recalling near-death experiences. There are people who nearly die, and did not recall anything. There are hundreds of traditions about what happens to us when we die. There is often a great deal of fear associated with dying and what is going to happen to us after we die. Over the years I have done a lot of work with hospice and peoples reaction to dying varies a great deal. Some ght to survive and some are ready and peacefully slip away. It is important to understand that we, like every living entity, have a lifecycle. We all are going to die. For ones peace of mind and stress control, we must spend some time thinking about death. Perhaps we can read some books, counsel with a spiritual advisor, or attend some seminars. This way we can have some peace about what will happen. My belief is that after we die, part of this carries on. I think we are much like the newspaper. The physical newspaper, the Lakeview Area News, has died. But an e-mail version of the newspaper carries on. Have you noticed when someone dies, everything else carries on. The Earth continues to turn. The sun, the stars still shine. People who remain continue to live and go to their jobs and build new relationships. A part of us carries on in the hearts and minds of those that we love. And from time to time, the name of the person whose past is spoken. But I believe there is something more that exists. Mostly that belief has been developed by my patients and others who have had near-death experiences. The strength of that belief is what overcomes the fear of dying. Instead of fear, I feel an excited anticipation. It feels much like being ready to go on a trip. If you are experiencing fear of dying, it is very important to nd peace with this. It is very stress producing and will make your life unpleasant. Seek some help, use some homeopathic remedies, do some reading, and seek some spiritual counsel. This way the rest of your life can be peaceful and joyful. Put Your Health in Your Own Hands. Bob Huttinga PA-C. 989-352-6500.
