THE DAY MY SEVEN YEAR OLD TOLD ME SHE WAS AFRAID TO DIE

WHEN MY SEVEN YEAR OLD TOLD ME SHE WAS AFRAID TO DIE

The day my 7 year old laid down beside me and told me she was afraid to die was the day I realized my daughter was starting to have questions that were beyond my ability to explain and her maturity to understand the answer. Her logical reasoning told her that dying is so scary that it would be better not to be born at all. At the moment she told me her thought, my mind started to scatter about all the possibilities.
