UPDATE

My topic, "discussing the different views of life after death", made looking for books very difficult. Fortunately the ones I did find helped my topic a lot. Now I'm stuck between two topics. Should I discuss different depictions of life after death, or should I talk about different kinds of evidence supporting life after death? I'm going to have to look more into this. I feel that discussing different depictions of life after death would give me much more intriguing imagery. Although, talking about different kinds of evidence supporting life after death would give me more to work with, and at the same time, I could still use vivid imagery. I'm still deciding.

 Experience and Feelings

    As I kept talking about the unexplainable things in our world, I noticed that I started to stray away from the religious beliefs that I was raised by, and started to build on my own personal religious beliefs. I’ve always had a different view of how the after life would be, so this isn’t much of a surprise. I once even dreamt that I had died and was stuck in an eternal dream state. Being in a constant dream land. I thought that maybe that wouldn’t be so bad. I’d be able to do anything I wanted forever. Then again, I’d never be re-united with my loved ones, which would make that heavenly dream state into a hellish nightmare. This was definitely a good exercise, as I’ve developed a few good ideas for upcoming compositions as well as a few story ideas.
