I do not "believe" and it is for that reason that I am the best person I can be.
You see, I believe that when I die, Im gone, thats it, kaput.
For a while, I went through emotions because of this, fear, disbelief, pretty much every negative emotion one can feel.
But when I finally accepted the fact that when I die, thats it, and that I am in fact going to die, I began to think, well what should I do with this
one chance I have.
I decided that the only thing left once I die, is everyone else who is going through, and is about to go through the same thing I am going through.
And that whatever I do with my life had better be to allow the next guys time alive be that much easier and enjoyable.
I am not at all religious, and it is because of that, that I find myself a much more caring, and noble person than most religious people I know.
I feel that some religious people think that "hey, if I screw up, I get another chance."
I dont believe I have another chance, and I had best do everything I can with this one.
IF there turns out to be a heaven, Im quite sure they wouldnt deny someone who did their absolute best to help those around them as if it were their
one and only shot. Regardless of what some bozo wrote over 2000 years ago in a book.
