What happens when you die?
Not to you, but to the world you leave behind? What happens to your Facebook, your blog, your twitter? Do they remain there, like a ghost of you, just waiting and anticipating?
Will people sit there and read through your Facebook page, reciting words you used to say, cry over old statuses you made, and pictures that have you tagged in them?
Will people delete you?
Or keep you?
Will people write on your Wall saying how much they miss you?
I went to one of my favourite blogs and the person hadn't updated in a long time. It made me think; what if they died? What if? You wouldn't know, their blog is just sitting there, like I said before, like a ghost of them.
This may make me seem like I'm obsessed with the internet, which I probably am, but I know there's more to life than it;
but it really makes me think.
I walk along the road wondering what would happen if a car hit me right here and now, or if a man starved of love and affection decided to take out his anger on me down a dark alley and I ceased to be.
What if?
