Think about the various conceptions of the afterlife. Paradise or purgatory, reincarnation or fertilization, angels or ghosts? What if none of them are true? Envision a different sort of afterlife and write from this place or space or level of consciousness as if you're sharing with the rest of us—with compassion, not judgment—how we ALL got it wrong, and what's really to come.

Feel free to share, in a sentence, your concept of a new life after life.
