Nothing new to the title you might say because death has been described as a journey. After all, we whisper “have a good journey” to the dead.

This morning I thought of this new journey as if we are onto something -a new milestone, a new event in our life. The newly dead meet strangers on that same journey. Those strangers might become good friends, or enemies, or competitors vying for God’s attention (?). In that journey, hopefully, we’d bring along our learnings from this life so as to live a better version of ourselves in the afterlife; that is, if we haven’t been transformed much in this earthly life.

Talking about the afterlife, my Christian sisters and brothers might think I have ditched my faith to believe in reincarnation. Well, not necessarily so. The afterlife could be heaven with God but because of who we are, we continue the process of transformation with and in God.
