The Second After Death

My wife and I were talking about death last night. I can't remember how the conversation started, but it proceeded toward what I think is an interesting idea. If you die, do you immediately "wake up" in the hereafter? In my way of thinking, that would be heaven, of course. If you do, then that means that all the people that you left behind - your spouse, your children, your brothers and sisters - will be standing right there when you open your eyes, regardless of them having lived on for years on Earth after your death. Almost as if you never left them, stepped out of the room for a second and then walked back in.

Besides being with God, that's a very comforting thought.
