Greenlovin'

Who we are anyway?
We are just borrowing the earth for a short while. Nothing is really ours for the keeping. I mean, I don't mean to sound like a cynic, but all our material goods will be worthless in the next century or the next millienum 'cause nothing is really ours. It's more like God's, who created the world, or if you wanna get all scientific about it, the Big Bang Theory created the world. The apes are our ancestors, not Adam and Eve, who brought sinto this world, but God brought temptation by creating the snake who tempted them with an apple much like the wicked stepmother in Snow White did.
When we died, we go to another world (Heaven or Hell), without our prized possessions. We actually don't take any material possessions with us although the pharoahs way back in Egypt were mummified with their treasure, but I bet when they crossed to the other side, they didn't only brought their souls with them although in their mindset they thought everything, including their most valued possessions will be brought with them in the afterlife. If we go to Heaven, we take our hearts with us. If we go to Hell, we take our souls with us. This is why we shouldn't obssess over material goods; we should just respect ourselves: our mind, body and soul. We also respect our borrowed time on this sacred earth 'cause we don't know when we might go.
As for me, I believe in reincarnation. I believe we don't turn into decompose into skeletal form or turn into ash although I thought about it immensely. However we were as humans, we become better or worse off than originally. Like a catepiller morphing into a butterfly, we can come back as a venomous butterfly (Is there such a thing?) or we can come back as a beautiful, awestuck butterfly.
