New Storytime Video (For Free, Free I Say!)
Added 2015-01-29 21:50:02 +0000 UTCCan you believe I released THREE videos this month? That's not an impressive number for the average person, of course, but for ME?! Whew! Since I promised I wouldn't charge Patrons for more than two videos a month, and this is really more of a story video (no heavy research, graphics, or travel required), this is a free offering, to say thank you. Thank you all, and may the death haters never get you down. xx Caitlin

In your situation, we would also have left ASAP. Some people have zero sense of what's appropriate. ;) Bless their hearts. Standing up and cheering for the way you turned the experience around!!

2015-02-02 19:16:12 +0000 UTCPeople are afraid of what they don't understand. First and foremost it is evident in our society that death is viewed as such a creepy, scary and fearful event and not the natural continuation of the experience of life that so many other cultures (mostly all except us in the US) see it as being. That all being said, I am richer for seeing how you treated the experience and can only hope to be as calm if likewise happened to me. Thanks for being a positive voice for change in this world of 'no, no, fear it.... be afraid of what you don't want to comprehend'

I get pretty scared sometimes as I get more involved with Death Positive conversations because a lot of people have a major pathological aversion to anything to do with death. I know that you help a lot of people have more confidence to talk about the changing framework of how we see death in this country.
