Get Over It.

What happens when you die? The question of where your soul will or won’t end up aside, your mortal flesh stays behind and rots, as described in expert detail in this cute little video. And because of all the embalming chemicals we use, we pollute our old earthly home and forever taint the water supply back on our old home planet.

What happens when you are still alive is something you have much more control over. Exert your power by exercising your choice of where and how to really live it up tonight while you still can. — Cory Graves
