Religion's offer hope, something they have long known people crave and have used to their advantage.

I suppose I'd have to know what Paradise entails before answering your question laugh


Me, I just want to be reincarnated as a Hot Smoking Lesbian. head banger

Hopefully it's not too much to ask.

How lazy would we have to be to want a paradise? How boring that sounds to me. No challenges, no conflicts or struuggle.., yuck.

Some believe that lack of struggle is unhealthy.


That we have a system that for thousands of years engaged rigorous conflict, and to not "take it out for a spin" every once in a while is a misuse of the system and leads to physical and metal maladies.



I wonder sometimes if that's not somewhat tied to the watching of sports.

If watching a thing is a vicarious experience...

I'd care a lot less about this life and world knowing there's something better right after it.

Eventually knowing I'd live forever would kill all feelings whether good or bad and life would be like staring into a room without doors and windows for the rest of eternity. If I lived forever would I beg for death? Probably yes.

Given enough time even heaven would feel like hell and If there is any meaning in life then this derives from the fact that life is limited. Our time has value because it is scarce.

People can expect to see 80 these days in a life of relative comfort and yet there's never been so many people finding it so hard to live and face the days without medication. The easier and longer your life is the less value it contains therein. What's gained in time and fortune is lost in gratitude and zest until only a state of living death remains. Good morning.

Its all about being good, to yourself, honest, dealing with a higher power that will support.
The navigation comes from the road you are on and what you want.

Ask and give good, it will come back.
Whether words or your last dollar.

Miracles happen everyday.

The end of this life, is a beginning.


As many die in this world through war,health,taking thier own life.Murder.
They will find thier place,

It is up to you to find your your way to live.

Live good Live caring. Love. Care
