How many of us actually wonder what happens to us when we die? What actually happened to our souls once our body failed us? Is there truly a heaven or a place to go to that our religion has been promising us?
These thoughts came through our minds as my friends and I were discussing our post-life situation after Earth. Since, nobody has actually go to heaven and gave us a review of the supposedly wonderful place, I actually wonder whether if it exists at all. If it doesn’t exists, then what is the purpose of our live on Earth? Every religion promises us a place to go to if we do good deeds to one another and have faith. However, ever wonder if we are wrong? What then happens to our life here?
Similarly, some people are atheist, refusing to believe that there is God or someone with a higher power. Or some people are free-thinkers, refusing to commit to one particular religion due to their own personal fears or reasons. What if these people are right all along? That there is no God and every religion was a lie? That what we have believed for the past years has been all a hoax?
I think that everyone needs something to believe in, someone to have faith on, and someone that they can trust and counted upon. Though, some people may not place their trust and faith on religion and God, they may placed their trust and faith elsewhere, be it Science or their family. Yes, everyone needs something to believe in, especially during their darkest times of their life. Also, I believe somewhere deep down in each of us, we believe that there is a better place than Earth, a place where there are no disasters, no wars, no diseases and where everyone is at peace. Yes, everyone wants to believe that there is a better place to go, a place where their lives will be better, a place where their deeds on Earth will be rewarded, a place where they truly belong or else what we are doing now on Earth will become meaningless…
