future life

Days yet unborn

Future life refers to existence after death—the continuation of the soul or consciousness in an afterlife, heaven, or some spiritual realm.

The phrase appears most often in religious and philosophical contexts: She believed her suffering would be rewarded in the future life.

It can also mean a later period of one's earthly existence: He saved money for his future life in retirement.
