In this image we are presented with the figure of an angel, someone who possesses wings and is thus not bound by the human limits. This image is meant to show the level of freedom and elevation that one can achieve through the act of flying. This aims to capture the spiritual and religious transcendence that Loder experienced during his near-death moment. It is meant to capture how in moments where one comes close to death, they may be able to go beyond the human earthly experience.

In this picture we are shown a human hand grasping the Earth in a powerful gesture. This image seeks to show how people desire control over the elements of the natural world through symbolizing our struggle to get hold of our surroundings. This image captures the Freudian belief that religions, the afterlife, and other such institutions were tools by which people could fool themselves into thinking that they were truly in control of things, such as death. This image is clearly an illusion, and it is meant to symbolize how Freud viewed the gods as a way to make people feel safe and not at the mercy of random uncontrollable events.

This image shows the sculpture called The Thinker, by sculptor Auguste Rodin. It has become an iconic image in modern culture and is thought to represent deep contemplation. This sculpture aims to capture the essence of what meaningful thinking is as we saw in the way the Victor Frankl handled his painful time in the concentration camps. The Thinker aims to capture this message because he is presented in a deeply contemplative posture, one that shows that the figure is having some profound thoughts. Similarly, Frankl believes that our thoughts on events in our life and how we process them help us to create meaningful ways to persevere through even the most difficult of situations.

This artifact addresses the need to let go of those who we have lost in our lives, rather than delude ourselves with hopeful wishing that they might somehow come back. This song deals a lot with "letting go" and how we sometimes wish to move on and leave all our worries and fears behind. This is  meant to be similar to the experience that J. Didion had, especially with "magical thinking." Didion's experience shows us that it is essential for us to accept reality rather than be a denier because denying the truth may have profound and unhealthy consequences. In letting go, one seeks to move on with their own life.

In this image we see the outline of a person climbing up a steep gradient. This image aims to capture the feeling of going through the various steps that Kubler- Ross discovered as people are confronted with death. The various stages that one goes through when dealing with the notion of death, which includes denial, anger, bargaining, depression and acceptance, are similar to climbing uphill because the steps progressively become more and more difficult. At times some people may even get stuck on certain steps and not be able to work upward to the top, in this case towards acceptance.

In this week we were presented with the notion of dreams and its significance to the concepts of death and a possible afterlife. In this fashion, this artifact depicts an open door that leads away from a room of darkness to one that is bright and open. The door serves as an analogy to what dreams can possibly allow people to experience, a glimpse into the afterlife and into seeing their lost beloved ones again. This artifact also serves as an analogy to show how dreams may be tools by which we can transcend human limitations to gain a glimpse of a higher plane, as some believe.
