What Death Feels Like

Mom: Goodnight, AirBear. *kiss* Sweet Dreams.
Air: Night, Mom.
Light off.
Air: Mom?
Mom: Yes?
Air: What does it feel like when you're dead?
Mom: Hm. I don't know. It feels like nothing, I suppose.
Air: Oh.
She thinks.
Air: Is it like when you jump up into the air, and your feet are off the ground? When you are touching nothing, and there is nothing touching you?
Mom: Er, maybe. Good night, Love.
Air: Night.
Mom walks out shaking her head. She is amazed at how her four-year old's mind works.

Hi there, just found your blog from Susie's blog. Hope you don't mind the visit. I think what your daughter said is amazing and so profound. We can learn so much from children!
