Quote: What we do in life echoes in eternity. — Marcus Aurelius Antoninus Augustus (121-180) Roman Emperor and philosopher

Comment: It is impossible to imagine a continuous eternity but it is worth trying just as an exercise in expanding our comprehension of the Primal Cause and our final destiny. God is the Absolute Infinite.

ASPIRING
Human Definitions: (1) to long, aim, or seek ambitiously <especially for something great or of high value>; (2) ascending; soaring

Derivation: Latin, “to breathe”

Quotes:
Heaven and God are not high above us – far away; they are deep within us. Seekers of the eternal Truth will realize [it is] within their aspiring hearts. — Chinmoy Kumar Ghose [Sri Chinmoy] (1931-2007) Indian spiritual leader
• In so far as [the] soul becomes permeated by truth, beauty, and goodness as the value-realization of God-consciousness, such a resultant being becomes indestructible. If there is no survival of eternal values in the evolving soul of man, then mortal existence is without meaning, and life itself is a tragic illusion. … What you begin in time you will assuredly finish in eternity – if it is worth finishing. — The Urantia Book (111:3.7)
