consider the events of your life; your personal history
try to remember not only
WHAT happened, but also
HOW it felt
now what if, as a philosopher once asked, you were
forced to re-live your life -
made to re-experience
EVERY single event, without
the possibility of change, and
ALL of the associated
pleasure and pain
and you were to do so again and again and again,
for eternity,
" . . . would you be overcome with despair? Or would you fall to your knees in gratitude?"-
Friedrich Nietzsche would this kind of existence be closer to Heaven
or to Hell?
