I believe we live life only once here on earth in these bodies. Then we have an afterlife in even Heaven or Hell.

I just don't think anybody knows for sure... but I do believe there's another life waiting for us, whether it's heaven or our souls stay here on earth or in a totaly different realm. I somehow can't wrap my mind around the idea of a hell, though.

I try not to think about it. I try to live every day like it's my last. I don't take for granted anything I've been given in my life and relish in even the smallest of details. I'm the type of person that stops and smells the flowers and watch the birds hopping from branch to branch. There's a lot of miracles on this green Earth that I think most people tend to ignore and not pay attention to. Enjoy life, make the most of it, turn that frown upside down, and when the time comes, I look forward to what God has in plans for me next.

Oh yes, we know for sure. I've seen miracles from the Lord and he's spoke to my heart, I know 100% where I'm going.

Interesting article. Trying to see where it fits with my Christian faith. Our souls may very much be like an energetic thing. A spark. Our picture of heaven/hell may be in an alternate/parallel dimension. But to me our memories and who we are as people must all be part of this spark.
