We are a product of a process called evolution, whereby creatures gain survival advantages by accumulating heritable traits which are selected by the simple fact that a creature better suited to a given environment will proliferate. All this is possible because the 2nd law of thermodynamics stipulates that entropy in an open system (like the earth which gains energy from the sun) can go down which means a higher level of order over time.
Death is an advantage due to the fact that if we don`t die we would overpopulate the earth use all available resources and die anyway. We are in effect gene survival machines whereby we carry our advantageous traits to the next generation and so on.
All design in biological terms is due to the available energy from the sun, mutations and natural selection. There is an enormous body of evidence to support this.
Don`t spend all your life on the futile and vain conquest of a second life, you will be bitterly disappointed, instead try to make life better for others HERE an NOW.

"Dose it make sence to come out your mothers womb only to live 60-90 years on this planet only to Go to sleep and never wake up again?? Lights Out?? Game over?? All the Learning, All the experiences, All the emotional up's and down's only to clock out and BOOM...Pitch Black empty nothingness?"
Yes, it makes perfect sense when you understand that there is no meaning or cosmic purpose to life. It may feel better to believe that there is life after death but nothing suggests that that's how it is. There is no evidence that there is any life after death.

You seems to be right when you say there is no haven or hell.Please do not use Jesus to justify yourself.He was the best at that time.We have lot to learn from his life and his teachings.If you really believe in second coming o Jesus,nothing wrong with that.We should have faith in some thing or somebody to survive in this world.I think you believe in reincarnation.GOD BLESS YOU.

This idea is a misunderstanding of scripture.
Jesus has no intention of returning as a living human. He already did that.
This time Jesus is returning in the hearts of those who have accepted his message and try to live their lives to emulate his teachings. Few actually do this. It requires a radically different interpretation of love from the one understood by most so-called believers. Most people see love as something that you keep in reserve only for those you have judged worthy of it.
This is not love at all. This is only judgment. Judgment is the exact opposite of what Jesus was teaching. Remember judge not lest ye be judged. Jesus asks us to love our neighbor. Notice that there is no accept for in this statement. Every one is intended to be included in this love Jesus ask us to have for our fellow man. This type of universal application of love requires no judgment on our part because Jesus’' intent was that no one be left out of it.
This is a difficult pill to swallow for any religion that thinks of it's self as being the one true and only correct way to God. This idea of exclusivity is the exact opposite of the message of inclusively that Jesus gave us.
Attaining the goals that Jesus set for us may be difficult within the constraints most religions impose. This is why many who seriously try to emulate the true teachings of Jesus in their lives do not ascribe to any particular religious following. They follow the truth in their hearts where Jesus has taken up residence.
Love and blessings.

I personally believe in rebirth, makes much more sense than an eternal heaven or hell and solves your dilemma, to quote "if we have been born once, then surely it is not impossible that we can be born again".

It doesn't make any sense to me to believe in afterlife. We must think of making things better to our future generations as long as we are alive instead of brooding over the afterlife. Many people have lost precious time by doing so.
According to me science is the only light which will lead us from darkness to enlightenment.
Good luck.

Doesn't really need to 'make sense' to you to be true, now does it?
As for 'giving my life to Jesus while there's still time', um... no thanks.
