We Are Responsible For Our Own Now And Then
I believe that we step back and forth between heaven and hell every day.
Are there pearly gates that part to welcome us as angels beckon with song? More than likely not.
Is there something after life? I believe so.
I subscribe to the thought that what we put out in life is what we receive in the end. It's an energy that is palpable and alive.
We find heaven on a daily basis. There are bits of it in every moment that we experience. There is proof that it exists. Unfortunately we simply choose not to see it (or can't because outside stimuli keeps our walls inpenetrable).
The same theory can be ascribed to Hell. In every moment there is a bit of it. It lurks and works to pull us in. Again, it's what we choose to see, believe and feel. Hell is subjective. It is not Dantes version of fire and brimstone (although I do believe that Nimrods exist as I come in to contact with at least one daily). Instead it (in my opinion) manifests itself into that which we fear and abhor the most.
All energy is connected. The good, the bad and the ugly (Thanks Hollywood for the phrase). Therefore Heaven and Hell are connected as well.
There's a balance beam and we (gingerly) walk it daily.
Choose love, kindness, grace and humility. In doing so (I believe) you guarantee soulful existence surrounded in these energies after death...
