Check this out: http://www.lifebeforedeath.com/It's Death speaking to you and asking you to have your last say (with no regrets before dying), suggestions of death flicks??!!, design your own 'happy coffin' and have your last playlist. They even have a page to teach you how to write your obituary... sounds like writing your resume, just that this time it's something you won't see as an end product in the newspaper. Well, this website does break the taboo of the death topic and is an initiative by Lien foundation, a centre dedicated in research and training in palliative care in Singapore. Here are my thoughts:
This website tells me that Death is a metaphor and is going to come get me when I die and fullstop. There's no life after death talk. It's just life before death and tells me that I can make the best out of it and take control of my death. Hooray. But wait a minute... that voice coming out of the speaker is not Death talking to me... it's just a man's voice. And hey... I really don't know when I'm going to die. But, a few things are certain based on the Bible:
(1) Everyone dies once in their lifetime (Hebrews 9:27)
(2) Man's life is but a vapor (James 4:14)
(3) There is life after death, where man either goes to hell or heaven (Matthew 7:13-14, Revelations 20:15)
(4) While on this earth, my chief end is to glorify God and share Christ with those who do not yet know Him (Matthew 28:19-20)
