Emily Bronte Slumbers and Quiet Earth

Prompt:"I wondered how anyone could ever imagine unique slumbers for the sleepers in that quiet earth." Emily Bronte Wuthering Heights
Joy asked what we thought what Emily meant by this quote.

I love Wuthering Heights and The Bronte Sisters. I had to think about this. Did she mean the dead who are buried in the moors? The dead may come back as ghosts like Heathcliff and Catherine did in the movie. I will stick to reality.

People who die go to Heaven. They are no longer there but it is their final resting place. This is sad. Cemeteries are for the departed.

Some cemeteries get disturbed. Cemeteries should be quiet and peaceful. Death is like sleep but you don't wake up. Death is peaceful.

Camping. Sleeping outside in tents and sleeping bags. That may be quite unless owls and wolves make noises. I have no desire to sleep in a pup tent or sleeping bag. I sleep in a house but I slept in a camper when I went camping years ago. It's not for me.

I think Emily put this quote in her book Wuthering Heights and maybe she was thinking of the departed. It sounds scary sleeping in the ground but if one is dead, you won't know it. Unique slumbers. Just enjoy life and someday when we depart, look forward to being with Jesus. Mixed thoughts. A good quote. I wish Emily was here so she and I could discuss this. These are my thoughts about this. Emily, I hope you don't have unique plumbers and are resting in peace.
