Thoughts One Rapture Weekend.
Last weekend (with the whole rapture thing) had me thinking of how we both live our lives presently, and I realized:
What if the life that we’re presently living is THIS LIFE? What if there is no After Life? That like the mermaid story, we just turn into foam? Or we return to dust and quietly slumber? No heaven, purgatory or hell..or the whole religion crap that society’s been feeding us since the beginning of civilization.
Then what have we lived for?
It is best that we live NOW and we live to the best that we could.
If we get married and have a child, and even if our child may not turn out to be the child that we yearn and ideal, at least we tried..at least we lived to do it.
We can die knowing that we did everything we could. We set dreams and try to achieve it. We love, laugh and cry. We fight for what is right and acknowledge what is wrong.
We could turn back into dust or to foam, but we leave knowing that we are who we are. Even just small significant flicker of legacy, it would live on forever.
We have to try.
