Thinking About Mortality - AKA Do We Go On After Death?

So ever just sit there and think about mortality? I have many many times. I used to be scared of the concept of not being alive. Then after Dad died that changed. I just sopped being afraid of death for some reason.

Don't get me wrong, I want to live forever - or at least till humanity stops existing - but I don't fear the fact that one of these days THUMP on the floor I go and off to be cremated they take me.

The vast majority of my life I have been quite certain that this is not the end. That is to say, that we go on in a different form after we die. Now I have not one clue what that new form is, or where the heck we go. But for some reason I have always thought there is more than just this life.

I've played with many forms of spiritual wisdom as it where. In the end I ended up thinking that the universe is literally the body of God. Yes this is a bizarre one and I'm sure most of you though "what the fuck" when you read that. But I'm not alone with this thought by a long shot.

I figure that when we die we get recycled as it where into a different way of existing. Not on this planet though, but in some other form of life. Then sooner or later we just become energy that is one with the great contentiousness that is the universe and we share it's mysteries.

There are actually enough people who follow this line of thinking that there are different brands of it. I'm one branch that believes in the multiple lives thing. Others think that this is the only step then we become one with the universe. Others think we are a bit of the mind of God thinking out possible forms of existence and that after God stops thinking up possibilities the universe stops existing.

But in the end it all comes down to an afterlife of some kind for me. Now it took me decades to get to this conclusion. There was a lot of looking into things of many sources and then seeing what "made sense" to me. Yes this makes sense to me.

I'm also fine with the fact I and many others might be wrong and we just stop existing. In that case who cares. Not like I will notice I was wrong about it.

I also think that there is more than one form of joining with the universe. For those who do a lot of bad things you end up with a bad afterlife - it is all up to choice this way. You chose to be who you are and thus chose what happens to you later. And NO I don't think you will be given eternal punishment for not believing what I think is right. In fact I think the bad folks will enjoy their existence just as much as I will - they will be with their kind.

I would very much like to know what you think in the comments. Do we just STOP one day? Do only a few get to go on? Is there eternal punishment for those who don't believe in your book? Let me know.

HOW TO FIX BLOGGER FROM DOUBLE SPACING LINES OF TEXT

Image
When you click on the editor to type text, it changes to "Paragraph" instead of "Normal". This causes there to be a double space between lines. If your trying to do a list, this is a serious piss off. So you have to click where it now says "Paragraph" and set it back to "Normal". I've had it a couple times not stay, and had to select all then set it to Normal again. As well it puts in a leading space (indentation of 1 space) you may want to delete as well, or your list won't look quite right at the top. It used to stay where you put it, but now it just up and changes it to Paragraph for literally no reason - even if you first set it to Normal - you click and POOF it changes.

YEAH THAT'S NOT A SCAM, I'LL EMAIL YOU RIGHT AWAY LOL

Image
 The anatomy of a scam. This is the exact format I've seen several times on other people's videos on YouTube (in the comments). See if you went to my channel the latest video would be at the top of the list and this was on an older one. There is literally an email link in my profile on YouTube and it was not used (even if it was I'd not fall for this crap). They use the words "your family" to make you react emotionally. You have thoughts like "Is someone hurt or in trouble"? This is almost always a way to try and get "money to your family member in need". Or it's a way to get information out of you. Sometimes it's a long lost relative you never freaking heard of leaving you money. There will always be a fee you need to pay for the legal matters to be cleared up and you to get the money. SCAM. It's interesting I've seen so many people reaching out on YouTube to people about "their family" this few months.

AI Image Generator Is Not So Intelligent

Image
Images created with Deep Dream Generator , and are free to use.   Asked for "a child walking into the sunset with the ghost of his grandfather." Got this instead. Asked for "a grandmother holding a baby in an old kitchen while a cat sits on a window that is streaming sunlight." This one actually worked, "a mother and son on a park bench eating an apple."

A Comment That Just Made Me Wonder About The Person

Image
I normally go out of my way not to make a deal out of comments but I'll do it this time. Please don't go looking for the comment either, leave the person alone please. So when you do a review of a movie, or on a trailer for a movie, you put the year it was released in brackets after the name, so people no it from another movie of the same or similar name. This is standard practice. How someone could be on the internet for over a week and not have noticed this is astonishing to me to say the least. Then again this channel of theirs is less than 2 or 3 months old only, so there is a possibility they are just trying to be funny, or trying to draw out a bad reaction. I don't look down on the person for this in any event, but I just am wondering how the hell you don't know this. They seem to think the (2023) is when I uploaded the video when in reality it was indeed 2024 when I uploaded - No one is trying to fool you dude, it's not a trick. Anyway, here is the comment in...
