an afterlife

While there is a powerful message in the words an afterlife, some way to continue, be among a supreme being's good graces, it's not a tale that needs to be focal to humanities existence. There's nothing particularly wrong with this believe, if you feel you go on, yet, it's a limited zeitgeist belief one sheds through realization. The present moment is the only prevailing moment, the current situation, the focal point. There is no other time and in an intrinsically similar vein, no other place "to be".

The "life finds a way" sentiment is pervasive throughout being, no matter where and how you look at it. While individualism is important as a teaching method (transient communication), being is the center of relationships (all relationships), through things (objects) and among all interpreters (subjects). Our existence is sandwiched between a past/future duality, eternally.

If you feel this "you-ism" continues, it is in this overarching view that it does, with the caveat that there is only an ineffable you that is constantly re-branded (as life), even now as one sits here and reads these words.
