  7. I don’t know what to believe about an afterlife, or the spiritual world. One thing that has confused me about it for my whole life is my experience when I was very young.

    Before I could talk very well, I didn’t have my own voice. Obviously, we don’t know what our voices will sound like before we can speak.

    But I always have a running commentary in my head. And when I was young, before I could speak and had my own voice, there was an old man’s voice in my head.

    I remember it clearly, that it was replaced with my own voice once I had one. I was very sad when it left me, and it felt like there was an old caring man who was leaving.

    I don’t know what to think about it. Was I simply capable of thinking in adult sentences before I could physically speak them and invented or copied a voice, and so am I remembering the voice as speaking more fluently than it was? Could I have been reincarnated and this was my past life voice, elderly as presumably I died when old? Or could it have been God?

    I remember it had to leave me. That was part of the sadness I felt. And I was never able to recreate it. Once my own voice was installed in my head thoughts, it never went back to the old man’s voice again. I can vaguely remember what it sounded like, but it is very distant.

  18. I've finished: It Lasts Forever and Then It's Over by Anne de Marcken

    What if the afterlife was zombie land?

    This isn't a survival action movie. It is not about losing yourself to mindless hunger.

    It is a meditation on grief, loss and decay. We get glimpses into the mind of a widow living as a zombie. Processing her grief over losing her husband, losing parts of her self.

    We follow her as she observes other communities and individuals as they find their own way of handling the aftermath of the zombie apocalypse.

    It is a wonderful zombie novella for people who hate zombie novels.

  20. DEATH, GOD, &
    A VERY SMALL SPIDER 💎

    I am increasingly aware that I will leave this world. I don’t know when. I don’t know how. Perhaps within the next decade. Perhaps sooner. Who knows.

    And strangely, there is less fear in that now. Most of the fear seems to belong to what I imagine is unknown.

    If death is simply the end of Robin and the end of this consciousness, then there will be nobody there to be bothered by it. It will simply be over. And if there is something beyond this life, another realm, another dimension, another form of consciousness, then I suppose I will recognise it when I get there.

    I don’t know. And I am quite happy not knowing.

    Human beings have created manifold books, religions and pictures of God, spirit, heaven, continuation and eternity. Perhaps some of them point towards something true. Perhaps some are simply beautiful ways of comforting ourselves in the face of death.

    But every picture I can make of what comes next is still a picture being made here.

    I don’t want to manufacture comfort. I want clarity. I want to meet whatever happens without having already decided what it is supposed to look like.

    Maybe there is something. Maybe there is nothing. Either way, reality does not require my opinion.

    And while I am sitting here contemplating this enormous mystery, a tiny spider appears beside me. He is absurdly small. I stop, look at him, laugh, and decide he can stay.

    And suddenly, there it all is. Death. Consciousness. God. Eternity. And a tiny spider wandering across my morning.

    The fire is on. The coffee is good. People are interacting with things I have written. The spider is minding his own business.

    Life has not stopped being ordinary just because I know it ends. I rather like that.

    None of it means anything until I give it meaning. And this morning, the meaning I choose is very simple.

    Gratitude.

  21. A quotation from Robert Ingersoll

    Infinite punishment is infinite cruelty, endless injustice, immortal meanness. To worship an eternal gaoler hardens, debases, and pollutes even the vilest soul. While there is one sad and breaking heart in the universe, no good being can be perfectly happy.

    Robert Green Ingersoll (1833-1899) American lawyer, freethinker, orator
    Lecture (1881-05-01) “The Great Infidels,” Booth’s Theater, New York

  22. A quotation from Orwell

    It is a commonplace that the Christian Heaven, as usually portrayed, would attract nobody. Almost all Christian writers dealing with Heaven either say frankly that it is indescribable or conjure up a vague picture of gold, precious stones, and the endless singing of hymns. This has, it is true, inspired some of the best poems in the world […] but what it could not do was to describe a condition in which the ordinary human being actively wanted to be.

    George Orwell (1903-1950) English journalist, essayist, writer [pseud. of Eric Arthur Blair]
    Essay (1943-12-20), “Can Socialists Be Happy?” Tribune Newspaper [as John Freeman]

    MARCUS: Don’t our friends, the philosophers, put their names on the very books they write condemning the quest for fame?

  26. A quotation from Cicero

    MARCUS: Death is no annihilation, carrying off and blotting out everything, but rather, if I may so describe it, a change of abode, and an alteration in our manner of life.
     
    [Mortem non interitum esse omnia tollentem atque delentem, sed quandam quasi migrationem commutationemque vitae.]

    Marcus Tullius Cicero (106-43 BC) Roman orator, statesman, philosopher
