Jun 9 2012: I think when we think about afterlife, it's because we aren't satisfied with present life and want to live a life as we want.I know in my country, many people do good things helping others to have the chance to live a good life in afterlife. I believe in afterlife because I don't believe death is the end of everything. That's hopeless and unreasonable. But I don't want to base my entire hope on afterlife or regard afterlife as my only reason and hope to continue. I'd like to fix my eye on my present life and cherish it. Sometimes I feel tried and bored about present life, I prefer to read novels. There I can live a life I cannot live in literal time. I feel good about that.
