Where Do Dead People Go?
Many people believe that when someone dies only the body dies. It is just as if a glass bottle full of water broke, and the bottle became useless. The container is gone, but what’s inside — the water — remains. The part of a person that’s left after the body dies is often called the “soul” or “spirit.” Some people believe the soul is the part of a human that loves, feels, and creates; it’s the part that make us who we are. No one really knows what happens to a person’s soul after death. There are many different beliefs about that, and it’s best to talk with your family to find out what they believe happens after our bodies die. Then you can decide what you believe.
