I call myself a hopeful agnostic. I vigorously want there to be an afterlife, where there's joy, justice, and fellowship for all God's creatures, great and small. I am unbelievably terrified of the prospect that one day I will cease to exist. And I want so desperately for all entities across space and time who have felt hurt and pain and suffering and helplessness and confusion and fear to feel peace joy hope and love. Whatever form that might take beyond the material plane, likely far beyond my mortal human comprehension, I hope with all my heart that the absurdity of this infinitesimal material existence as matter and the forces between it animating each other and aware of it is followed by an infinite spiritual coda.

Thanks for reading.
