How about when I'm gone?

I've been on a kick lately where I've been listening to a lot of Eminem, and lately, this one has been repeating, and it just sticks in my mind.

This is one of the most powerful raps I know of Eminem, and I love it, love the emotion.  Music is such a great outlet for emotions, and if you actually listen to the lyrics, they are amazing.

What really gets me is the chorus of this song:

And when I'm gone, just carry on, don't mourn
Rejoice every time you hear the sound of my voice
Just know that I'm looking down on you smiling
And I didn't feel a thing, So baby don't feel my pain
Just smile back
And when I'm gone, just carry on, don't mourn
Rejoice every time you hear the sound of my voice
Just know that I'm looking down on you smiling
And I didn't feel a thing, So baby don't feel no pain
Just smile back...

So much power in the chorus, and it makes me think of when people die.  

Why do we miss people when they die?  Because they aren't here with us any more.  Why don't you think that we can accept death, and be happy if someone dies?  They aren't here any more, but they don't have the pain that we feel and have while we are here.. over all, they are in a "better place" even if there isn't a heaven or hell.
