Life is short, you’ve been born, and you’re living, you will die, you have loved ones around you all the time. But what about those who do not have loved ones around them, what happens to them? Do they go to hell for not living an enjoyable life? Do they go to heaven because this is God’s way of saying thanks for holding out? No It’s neither, they become neither living nor dead, they are just there. No purpose, no life, no love, no suffering, at first it sounds really good. It sounds like a life that a few of us wish for, a life where you don’t suffer, at all.
