Quality Time
A lot of people question
Whether there is an afterlife.
I don’t understand
The point of their debate;
It doesn’t matter whether
There is one at all.
Say there is one;
You’ll want to have
Lived the best life you could have
So that when you stand
Before the throne of whatever
Higher power you believe in (or not)
You have the weight of deeds on your side.
From the other perspective,
That of one who believes in nothing
But this world. You still want
To have lived the best life possible,
Because the only lasting impression
You will ever make upon this earth
Is the weight of your deeds,
And how they are remembered.
So, whatever you believe,
Do your best,
Or you might come back as a cockroach,
Be cast into a burning pit,
Or just fade into oblivion (That just might be the worst of the three).
