Temple Grandin The theme of death is a recurring idea in the movie Temple Grandin, as she witnesses and experiences many deaths throughout the story. In the beginning when she is attending Mountain Country School, she comes across a horse named Chestnut.

It’s difficult to comprehend that you will never be able to see, or touch, or talk to ever again. I see why Temple was thinking in such a literal way because when you get down to it, it's complicated to comprehend how someone can be breathing and alive one second and the next they are gone forever. There have been studies and tests done that show when someone dies, they instantly become slightly lighter and weigh less. Some say that’s when the soul leaves the body and scientists have tried to calculate the exact weight of the soul. But the question is, where do we go when our souls are no longer embedded in our bodies? Do we inhabit new bodies? Do we stay spirits forever and never have a chance at life again? I think the reason the idea of death is so interesting and puzzling is because we will never truly know what actually happens to living things when they

There are several theories about what happens after we perish. Many thoughts can be made about where we go or who and even what we turn into but there are so many possibilities on what actually happens. Coming up with one specific theory is not easy, but I have come to the conclusion that my belief is after we die, we come back as something else. Reincarnation is a debatable topic on rather you believe the rules behind it or not. My theory is that we come back as perhaps another person in a completely different body with no memory of what happened in your past.
