Jewish people often toast by saying, “L’chaim!”. Many people think this means “to life”, but it actually means “to lives”. Why? Because we have two lives to toast; this one and the one to come.

The life you live now is meant for you to be productive. That is your purpose here. Being productive in this world will cause a result which will have a positive outcome in your World to Come.

So perform acts which will produce as many positive results as possible. Don’t confuse the issue. You are here in this world as the producer, not as the end result.
