Congratulations on rejecting the "Beautiful Fantasy". We may be genetically geared to believe that
we are more than flesh and blood. We must be immortal because we can think and dream and conceptualize
abstract ideas. We are self obsessed and often have inflated notions of our own importance. That leads, not only
to inflated egos but to some wild speculation regarding a life after death, and a glorious one at that.
Loving father figure included (Though, not much mention of the soft bosoms of a Goddess figure to take care of us guys).
Maybe that's what it would take for me to buy into the Eternal Dream, you know like the 67 virgins promised by Muslim extremists.
Well that number is way too high and kinda scares me to death, along with the idea of eternity with my deceased
relatives. Many of which, I didn't care for in the first place. Eternity is a really, really, really, (I could keep writing really's
forever here) long, long, long............................................time!!! I will pass!
I love the idea of working on an intense appreciation of what this life does offer. The beauty of nature, our friends, loved
ones, our physical beings, our abilities and our apprehensions. There is plenty to deal with here and now to make a life
from. An eternal struggle to be the best human beings we can be!
