Is there a here-after? Danged if I know! Of course; we can hope, pine, crave, desire, want, need, hanker, fancy, itch, burn, and go hell-bent for a here-after, but no-one can prove, or disprove such a place exists.

Visiting someone can be a very healthy welcome wonder, for we may enjoy inspiring insights, facilitate new friends, enjoy edibles, convincing conversation, long laughs, delicious desserts, and overall, an enviable evening. It is, usually, a nice exciting evening!

I am totally indoctrinated in the belief that absolutely everyone should hold in their hearts and minds, an impossible dream – but it must be conceivable!
As Jonathan Swift noted: “Vision is the art of seeing things invisible.” “My imagination is my starship to forever ... Views: 876
