Greetings Everyone!




In the past many people and cultures were buried with the items they believed they would need in the afterlife. What would you want buried with you so you could use it in the afterlife?


(Just for theoretical fun of course)


Well, I sometimes joke with close friends/family and look at my pets and be like "If I ever die first do you guys want to be sacrificed so you can be buried with your beloved mommy and be together forever in the afterlife via Viking tradition?"


I am pretty sure this is their general consensus on the matter...









In any case, I would probably choose some favourite books, my pointe shoes, TV, some precious family heirlooms (Jewelry), smartphone, some souvenirs from my travels and my bed or couch with lot's of fluffy pillows. Maybe some favourite snacks. And if my kitties, dog and horse change their minds then some awesome cat beds, equestrian tack, toys and lot's and lot's of treats :tongue:

To Valhalla we go! :soldier:

TV, and of course, the remote!:) If we are talking about the after life being "paradise", that means I'll have access to ALL the broadcasting networks for free!:yess:

I will be cremated. However, I better have on my etched dolphin necklace. Except for cleaning or repair, it hasn't been off of me for over 25 years.

I've actually said in jest to my family (or maybe not in jest) that I want burying in my dressing gown. It's an old faithful friend that I couldn't replace.

Probably my favorite coffee mug and pictures of all my animals, past and present.

DH's record collection from when he was a teenager so I can give them back to him. I guess I'd also have to bring his stereo system with the turntable so he can enjoy them.

My cats will be with me; it's a given. It just is. Or I'm not going into the afterlife.

I want every single book that I own with me. Novels and ebooks and cookbooks.

Maybe my afterlife could be lived in a huge library!
