A Barista at Starbucks
I spoke to her when I was on my 10 min break:
Juiliana:
Leticia :Hella busy out there right?
Juiliana : Yeahhh like always. ughh
Leticia: Can ask you couple questions?
Juiliana: Sure, Whats its about?
Leticia: Death!..well the care of the dead.
Juiliana: So0o.
Leticia: What do you think about When people die?
Juiliana: Like are they really dead?... Are they going to heaven?
Juiliana: I believe people continue living, kind of like Karma, what goes around, comes right back.
Juiliana: I don't know, because my parents are not that old. My mother is like my friend.
Leticia: Have gone to funerals before?
Juiliana: Yeahh it was sad, but I did not lose my friend, she is still on my mind all the time, is just I can't see her.
Leticia: If you don’t mind me asking....Where do you think you will go when you die???.
Juiliana:.. I hope Heaven.... I'm not sure if I'm able to make that choice.
Tyron Another Barista
While, I was on my Half.
Leticia: Tyron. Let me ask you a couple questions.
Tyron: Whattt Do you want to ask?.. I hope is a appropriate questions.. Cause I am not your mother.
Leticia: relaxxx.
Tyron: Ask away.
Leticia: So what do you think about death?
Tyron: Childdd. How old are you again?... Girl I have seen death.. In Harlem things happen.
Tyron: Things happen, for a reason. This is why people need to be smart on what they do in life.
Tyron:. I been to funerals.. Cried, laughed.. And questioned.
Tyron: They all say, Rest in peace and they are at a better place...
Kristen one of my close friends:
Leticia: Hola Kristennn.
Leticia: What do you think about death?
Kristen: I think it’s scary
kristen: I Think it’s sad for people to die
Kristen: I think people should live for many years...But through the movement of the future? Like people from dinosaur’s days, they don’t live with us now. But What if they were still living among us?
Leticia: So like life never ends?
Kristen: The earth changed in many always... It never ended.. .But people have..
Leticia: Do you believe in heaven and hell?
Kristen: Noo… People bodies do deteriorate. But since there is no heaven or hell, the person goes into the next living thing.
Leticia: So do you think people should celebrate a person death?
Kristen: I don’t think celebrate is the word... But a presentation of the person.
Leticia: So what do you think, you would do.. If a person close to you die
Kristen : Hope their next life is beautiful.
After interviewing these people, The conclusion seem to be that, things happen for a reason, and life works out in mysterious ways.
The care of the dead?.. Sounds like it’s part of the history channel (it is)... I don’t know where it came from or When people start having funerals….And who said it people need to wear all black?.
My mother is not a religious person, but she believes there is a heaven and hell. My mother never force or tried to make me be religious. But This year, I put into thought.. Not that I don’t believe, but being part of a religion is safe, because there is a backup.. A person or something looking out for you.. This is why I respect people for continuing their belief. I think and I Hope that there is a person or something looking out for me, even though I’m not part of dominate religious practice. I thought it was interesting how Kristen mentioned that humans Die, but the earth does not die. Which, I think it’s true the person is not in the same body you knew them in, but they are still living their life. It’s kind of like…You think you saw them in the street…Or a person reminds you of them.
