If someone was dead before being brought to this place, have they been resurrected?

It seems that there are numerous individuals that remember dying before their arrival here

if you are one of those people, if you are “dead”, i would like to ask you a few questions.

And if someone is dead in their own world, that raises the question of what happens when we “go back”

is this just purgatory before the final death sentence

wonders never cease, i guess.

Please reply if this applies to you or if you have any relevant information or opinions on the matter.

Thanks.

I chose to laid down my life before being brought here. That, I was certain. I caught a glimpse of the afterlife, but instead, I was brought here, whole again somehow.

[Whole. He was fairly certain he disintegrated himself.]

I can't be certain if this place is purgatory, or that we are given a second chance to live in another world. I would prefer to believe the latter, a chance to live a normal life.

Though, it doesn't escape my mind that if I were to go back I would return to where I'm supposed to go- the afterlife.

[givemewings]

[Ah, it’s the robot again.]

An afterlife, huh

how nice.

I keep hearing about people “going back”, though i suppose there’s no much proof that that’s actually where we’re going, but it’s the most logical outcome.

It seems like it could happen at any moment

keeps me on edge.

I know a friend of mine returned to her homeworld.

I didn't realize she was gone until I tried to call her.

Like you said, it could happen at any moment. Best to make the most out of this new life while we can.

[And he intends to after Marie's scolding.]

[givemewings]

What an aggravating concept.

Make the most out of your life while constantly looking over your shoulder, waiting for the other shoe to drop.

That’s despair.

[peacewithouttyranny]

Despair, truly?

Perhaps if you see it that way, but what would you rather do, then?

I can't say with absolute certainty that I will stay here forever, but I rather not waste away, worry about the inevitable, and do nothing when I'm given this chance to be "alive" again.

[givemewings]

”Live every day like it’s your last”

That old saying...

I guess I have no choice.

[peacewithouttyranny]

I don't think I heard that saying before.

[Aliens......]

But I get the meaning, I think.

I can't dictate how you choose to live your life here. Do whatever you feel that makes you the most happy...

[givemewings]

isn’t it a little selfish to only act in the interest of my own happiness?

[peacewithouttyranny]

It is selfish, yes.

But is there something wrong with being a little selfish every now and again?

[givemewings]

I guess so.

I’m just not used to living that way, is all.

[peacewithouttyranny]

Prior to being brought back here, most of my life was on the battlefield. Even before the war, I didn't exactly have a normal life.

This place presented the opportunity for me to live for myself. It would be a waste to not take it.

Though, I suppose it isn't so simple to just simply settle on that lifestyle. It's easy to feel lost and not know what to do for yourself. But...

I'm willing to lend a hand or an... ear if you want to talk to someone. Only if you want to, anonymous.

[givemewings]

it is extremely difficult

Especially knowing there’s a chance i may have to remain here forever

[peacewithouttyranny]

Possibly.

[He's... fine with that, honestly. Though he won't write that down.]

Just know that you're not alone dealing with that.
