It suddenly occurrred to me that life is really a blip in the greater scheme of things. In the realm of Eternity. Occording to orthodox Christian belief, when we die, our soul lives on for all Eterrnity, and if you're Christian, your soul will be realized in Heaven (a place that is eternal). And Eternity is such that there is no beginning or end, so when you are in it, you have exsisted before you lived, and you will exsist long after you have died on this Earth.
In which case, why should this life really matter all that much? Is it some kinda cosmic joke; God decided to put us on a crossroad called life, where if we chose the right path, we'd spend eternity in Heaven, and if we chose the wrong one, we'd spend it in hell?
And if we did choose the right one, and we will have all Eternity to know God, why are we all so anal about trying to seek him in this short period of time, unless it is to improve the condition of our lives in this little blip of Eternity?
We take ourselves too seriously, don't you think. Why should it matter? What is this life and what is this body, if we have all Eternity ahead and behind us when we die.
Ah well.
You may be seeing my litttle sister on MTV soon, she's so fucking funny you can't help but love her.
I am going to Saigon tomorrow!
