The truth about life is that, from beginning to end, it is nothing more than a mirage, a dream that feels quite real, but indeed is not real at all.  Life is no more than an experience in the senses of touch, smell, taste, seeing and hearing.  Remove these senses from our lives and the dream vanishes, it disappears. 

The truth about life is that it was never meant to be eternal.  This explains why every thing in life must eventually die.  This life then is but an experiment in the senses.  Once this experiment is finished, it is time to leave this life and this world and begin another journey.  Our journey here is complete once our senses dull and the wonder of this life disappears from our lives.

The truth about life is that it is shorter in life span than the blink of an eye in comparison to eternity, which is forever, while one life span is truly of no consequence to the eternity that lies before us.  Now, there awaits real life - the kind of life that will span an eternity.

The truth about life is that it is but a dream, a short, quick dream filled with too much pain and sorrow and violence and war.  What race in their right state of mind would want to live in such a chaotic, painful world forever?  Thank goodness we are only here but for a miniscule while!

The truth about life is that in comparison to eternity it indeed is no real life at all.  Life instead is but a short, brief experiment in the opposite side of real life, which is what awaits us when we pass on to the other side.  Death in this life time is not the end but rather the beginning of an amazing and fantastic journey into the true and very real everlasting life awaiting us on the other side.

The Truth about life is that it is all unfolding only inside our brains, like a movie playing inside our head, lacking real substance or tangibility.  Our brains are the movie projectors casting images of what we call life on the veil separating this life from the next, which is the eternity awaiting us on the other side of that veil.

The truth about life is that it is not real life at all.  It is instead but the opposite of true life.  For true, tangible life goes on forever and never ends, while this life is like the dream that we awaken from one morning, only to realize that it was just that - a short dream, one that we in time awaken from at the end of our short-lived lives.  

The truth about life is that it will end one day for all of us, whether we want it to or not, and then true, infinite, eternal life will at last begin for each one of us, at that very moment, on that very day, in that very instant!  And thus will begin the eternal journey through infinity for each one of us.  It is then that we will finally realize what real life truly is.    

So be it.
