poll: what does life mean to you?

is life just a dream within a dream,
with only some people fulfilling their intercourse with destiny?

LIFE MEANS PONDERING ALL OF THE DEEP LONGINGS, AND GRAND ADVENTURES THAT WE TAKE...IT MEANS REFLECTING ON EVERYTHING AND EVERYONE THAT OUR LIVES HAVE TOUCHED....IT MEANS LEARNING FROM OUR MISTAKES AND TRYING TO NOT JUST MAKE THEM OVER AND OVER !! IT MEANS LEARNING ALL THAT WE CAN AND APPLYING THAT KNOWLEDGE IN POSITIVE WAYS...TO ENRICH OUR LIVES AND THE LIVES OF OTHERS....IT MEANS COMPASSION AND PATIENCE AND JOY AND SADNESS...HEALTH AND SICKNESS...LOVE AND HEARTBREAK...IT IS THE SUM TOTAL OR OUR BEING !!

IT ALSO MEANS FINDING SOMETHING TO BELIEVE IN, AND HOLDING ONTO WHATEVER IT IS....RATHER IT IS GOD, OR ALLAH, OR JUST A SUPREME BEING...BUT WE ALL NEED SOMETHING TO HOLD ON TO...IT MAKES THE INEVITABLE END SO MUCH EASIER TO ACCEPT...IT MAKES DEATH TOLERABLE..IF WE HAVE NOTHING TO CLING TO, THEN WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF LIFE....THERE IS NONE !!

"ASHES TO ASHES DUST TO DUST" IS A REALITY FOR THE BODY.

BUT THE BELIEF THAT OUR SOUL GOES ON FOR INFINITY IS WHAT DRIVES US TO DO OUR BEST...KARMA IS THE LAW OF THE UNIVERSE...KNOWING THAT, BELIEVING THAT GIVES US ALL HOPE...THE PROMISE THAT WE WILL RECEIVE BACK WHAT WE GIVE IS AN AWESOME PROMISE....SOMETIMES !!!! OR NOT !!!

WE ALL HAVE OUR OWN OPINIONS AND THEORIES ABOUT LIFE AND DEATH AND THE HEREAFTER...AND ONE THING IS FOR SURE...SOMEONE IS RIGHT...THE REST OF US ARE VERY WRONG...AND THE ONLY WAY WE WILL EVER REALLY KNOW WHO GOT IT RIGHT IS WHEN WE WALK THROUGH THAT DOOR TO THE OTHER SIDE.....

AS FAR AS DESTINY, I FIRMLY BELIEVE WE ALL CREATE OUR OWN DESTINY...AND WE ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR OUR OWN FATE...SOME PEOPLE BELIEVE WE ONLY GET ON SHOT AT LIFE, OTHERS BELIEVE THAT WE LIVE MANY LIFETIMES...AND THAT KARMA DETERMINES EACH OF THOSE LIFETIMES AND WE LEARN FROM OUR PAST INCARNATIONS...MILLIONS OF PEOPLE BELIEVE THIS..."DO UNTO OTHERS AS YOU WOULD HAVE THEM DO UNTO YOU" IS A PRETTY GOOD RULE TO FOLLOW...YOU NEVER KNOW IF SOMEONE YOU TREATED BADLY IN THIS LIFE WILL SHOW UP IN YOUR NEXT LIFE AND MAKE YOU MISERABLE!!

ALOT OF PEOPLE SEE REALLY HORRIBLE PEOPLE GO THROUGH THIS LIFE VIRTUALLY UNSCHAVED...BUT DO THEY REALLY GET AWAY WITH THEIR EVIL DEEDS??? MAYBE NOT!! I WONDER?? POSSIBLE THEY PAY FOR THEM IN THEIR NEXT LIFE..

THE POSSIBLITIES ARE ENDLESS....

HAVE A GREAT JOURNEY !!

Life is no dream. Life, all life is real and doesn't end. It does change form. When a person or thing dies, as we know, the body decays. But the sole lives on and goes to another place. For me being a Near Death person from a crash yrs. ago, I have seen what the beginning of the next life is like. This life is a learning place to get us ready for the next.

Life is only a dream within a dream when I see your face floating in my sweet dreams filled with passion and romance. <sigh>
