There is a very simple way to have eternal life right here on
earth. This is not about heaven and hell. This is not about dying
and going to heaven.

If you want to live forever, then you have to build something to
serve your community or your country.

You have to create something that others can use; something others
can learn from decades and centuries after you die.

You have to leave a record behind, something in writing telling
others what you have accomplished, all the mistakes you made in
your lifetime, and how they can avoid making those same mistakes.

You have to prepare the next generation so they can avoid your
mistakes and cultivate your accomplishments.

Once you achieve that, you will continue to live through your
creation, your invention, your accomplishments. You will continue
to live through the minds of future generations.

The more people you benefit, the longer you will continue to live.

There is one more thing worth mentioning that is even more
important.

Never attempt to re-invent the wheel.

If someone before you created or accomplished something great, you
can certainly achieve eternal life trough that same
creation/accomplishment simply by dedicating yourself to become its
guardian, to maintain it, and to constantly strive to improve it.

Toussaint Louverture is still alive today because he manufactured
freedom for an entire nation. As long as mankind continues to
exist, he will always be remembered as the manufacturer.

That's eternal life!

Unfortunately, you and me, we are running all over the world trying
to re-invent our freedom instead of putting our heads together to
maintain and improve what he already created.

Eternal life is very easy but in order to achieve it you have to
change your wants, you have to "want" for you and for others.

No selfish man can every live eternally.

In order to achieve it, you have to go deep inside your mind and
condition yourself to be satisfied even if no one is clapping.

You have to realize that when everyone is clapping, it only means
that they approve what you did; it does not necessarily mean that
what you did was good.

We all go through life one way or another.

We all eat, drink, sleep, and do what we have to do to survive.

We all pay our bills or at least we try to.

We all become adults at one point, we have husbands, wives, kids,
and we do what we must do everyday to put food on the table.

You know something... that's not enough!

Everything I mentioned above, just minimum requirements for
survival and evolution.

If all your accomplishments stay within the four walls of your
house then you didn't achieve anything at all; nothing that is
meaningful to us as a whole and nothing worthy of eternal life on
earth.

If you want eternal life on earth, you have to give a little, you
have to love a little, you have to care a little, you have to
contribute a little, you have to extend your responsibilities a
little, you have to mind other people's business a little, you have
to feel their pain a little, you have to believe in yourself a
little, you have to believe in others a little.

Find your purpose in life.

Always do the right thing.

Your grand kids are counting on you.

Remember, if your great grand children can hear your name from a
stranger's mouth, that may just be the beginning of eternal life.

It's your decision.

Decide!
