Thoughts on Death

There is the idea that with death comes a ticket into the pearly gates of heaven or a ticket for the bus to hell. But what if we didn't get that but a deeper understanding of who we are. We live in another realm where we just know. In the mortal world that’s what we spend so much of our time searching for. Knowledge. We struggle with religion and each other all for knowledge. People are tortured for knowledge. Maybe that is our ticket to one or the other. And our reaction to the knowledge is what determines heaven or hell. Maybe not in a literal sense but in a type of thinking sense. If you see it negatively, you are in hell. And if you see it positively you are in heaven.
