I've been thinking about the concept of infinity and what it means to life. People who are christian believe that the soul is eternal. And philosophers talk about our "essence" which biologists explain as a complex, complex interaction of millions of cells working together...a sort of universal consciousness of the universe within one body, if you will. An energy, that can't be destroyed, but can probably be changed or dispersed. Which leads me to my theory that when we die, we don't have an "eternal soul," per se, and I don't think that we get another chance at life as we know it, I think that maybe we live on by our body decomposing and our energies dispersing as our organic matter changes form. I think that this life is the only one we get and then our consciousness just ends, as we know it. The universe is infinite. Numbers are infinite. The only thing that isn't infinite is perception.
