Is anything stronger than death?

                People say “death is inevitable.” I don’t entirely believe that. Now you are probably like, “WHAT!?!?! Do you really believe people can be immortal?! Do you believe in vampires?” No, I don’t believe in human immortality. I, however, do believe in angel immortality. That is I believe in heaven. I am sure many people believe in heaven, and I know many people don’t. It isn’t a commonly discussed topic. Usually, the only time the afterlife is discussed, is at a funeral. "They are in a better place." Even at my church, we hardly ever address the subject of afterlife. I think the reason why is because it is an uncomfortable subject. If people think about death too much, they get paranoid. “What is really going to happen when I die?” “Is heaven really real?” It is terrifying to think about the possibility of nothingness, so many ignore it. Virginia Woolf, however, has no interest in ignoring death. She understands the inevitability of death and the human struggle to avoid it. She understands the in reality, you can only delay your encounter with death and not escape it. Woolf claims death is unescapable like the window pane, but my beliefs are slightly different. Are you really dying if your consciousness continues on? The only difference being where it is located. Or are you just permanently moving to a new and peaceful land? Woolf mentions no afterlife. I don’t know what her beliefs are, but I understand that my beliefs aren’t represented in her work. I am not trying to criticize Woolf’s work, because she is right about the inevitability of death on earth. She explains the truth in a beautiful way. However, death and death from earth are completely different ideas. Virginia claims, “death is stronger than I am” (Woolf 5). I can’t help but revise this statement to fit my beliefs. To me, God is stronger than death.
