Do you believe in an afterlife?

I'm honestly torn on the issue. I lost the love of my life to cancer, but we made an agreement before she died. If possible, she would reach out to me, and I would know it's her because we have a word that she'll use. It's been years now, and I've yet to see or hear that word. I've lost confidence that I ever will.

Idk if afterlife exists or not.. But if does, I doubt it would be in the form religions predicted it to be..

I also understand that losing someone makes you wonder about these things, or wish they exist. I am agnostic, and I lean towards no afterlife. I lost my mother to Cancer a year ago, and I wished there was an afterlife where she could live the life she never loved on earth.

@BittersweetPotato I'm sorry for your loss. I'm not religious, but I think about the same stuff everyone else does. Realistically, there is nothing else and no one there for us. That's not what I want, but it is what it is.
