LIFE AFTER DEATH

How to have life after death, literally to have happiness after sadness. The sadness being your death and the happiness being life again after the sadness, after experiencing sadness as death.

To mourn and deeply feel a loss. To deliberately go into a state of mourning to feel this loss, to feel how it feels to be without. A self-inflicted wound like the ripping of a lion's teeth while you are wearing goat skins, Daniel to be one's mentor of surviving the death of a den of lions. Blood poured onto the jacket of Joseph, shown to his father Jacob, Joseph remained alive, his Father too. Joseph imprisoned, enslaved, falsely accused of rape. His grandiosity so threatened his family, his brothers would have nothing to do with him.

To be grandiose. What is this condition and is it a good or bad state of mind to let occur. To see the stars as your universe, and to love this universe as if it were all yours. Yours alone. To share this love with another who does not have this love, this incredibly great and awesome love, to then sicken him into a state of hate for you because you have this love, more than he, just because you can imagine it. How to stop the negative effects of grandiosity? Simply give to others.

A humungous universe maybe two thousand universes, all representing Gd's creations. A Shabbat representing rest on the seventh day [Saturday] when Gd's creating ceased, to be our day of rest too!

An imagination is an incredible gift! To imagine how Gd created thousands of universes. A lively active mind, a deeply felt personal relationship with Gd, a lofty state of grandiosity caused by a cup of coffee or two. Not to slide off Jacob's ladder, not falling off the balancing beam.

Let's toast! Toasting with morning coffee on a Friday! To feel as great as Gd, to have compassion and empathy for Gd, to know how He feels. To have a Shabbat Shalom! A DAY OF REST to be written in CAPS!! To allow yourself to feel  good enough as one who is "chosen" to enjoy it all!! And to share your happiness with others so they feel it too.
