Do you think that the choice is a one-time-only deal? Do you think 
they can stay for a while and then go on, or go back and forth? Or 
do you decide at the time of your death to live eternity as a ghost, 
or it's decided for you by your fear, and you can never go to the 
place where everyone else goes? Or do you have to accomplish 
something, and then you can rest at peace? Any thoughts?
