It's the inside that counts

People always speak of the insides of other people and that it is those who need to be pretty and not the outsides. But what is meant by this nonsense? Nonsense because, really, who has EVER opened the body of a human and thought to herself "Oh what a pretty mixture of fluids and intestines!!". Name one who isn't some sociopath murderer, those people might enjoy it..

The insides. Intestines, vitally important stuff which should be in order to keep a living creature running. But what happens when these things are not okay. When something snaps and chaos starts to reign.
I've heard so many times and again that internal bleeding is a bitch. On the outside you look fine, but on the inside you are dying. Literally. I admit okay might be an exaggeration since signs do show themselves in the body, but they are minor compared to what's happening underneath the skin.
I find internal bleeding odd. Puncturing a vein, but not the skin making the blood leak, but not out of your body, but IN the body itself. It seems so wrong. Blood should be inside of outside never in between!

I wonder how doctors fix people with severe internal bleeding. Is it possible to just sow the veins back together? Makes me wonder. I guess I would just think "Oh shit..." and not know what to do. Speaking of which! I actually have witnessed such a scenario, the bleeding I mean. I had this mini internship thingy in middle school where I went to a vet. Very interesting experience I tell you! Then one of the days I was to observe an operation on one of the customer's dog. They should neutralize her and they therefore cut her open. Everything was fine. Until he hit a vein.... Blood started rushing up and I remember thinking "Oh dear...." unable to fathom what was going on. Apparently this is nothing to worry too much about cause he knew what to do, but all of that blood coming out of her! So wrong...

Now, back to the cause of death theme. I would think dying of internal bleeding would be a nice way to go. I imagine it a little painful, but not too much and I think one is to pass out at some point due to the loss of blood so well, I'm probably not even going to be conscious when the heart stop beating. That's convenient!
