Yes, you may do whatever you wish. Salvation has been achieved. But, you've gotta be asking yourself: what is more beneficial... to live for the enjoyment of 70 years on this ball of dirt, or live for the enjoyment of the rewards that last for eternity?

Here is a good why to enjoy life.

A wise person is a model of a meaningful life. Like a tree attracts people to its shade, his or her sense of purpose attracts others who want to know how they too can find meaning. Gaining wisdom yourself, then, can be the first step in leading people to God. Leading people to God is important becasue it keeps us in touch with God while offering others eternal life.

Everone is born into sin right so therefore we are lost, so that is why Jesus came to save and seek the lost. And then when they are found, God says that they must tell others the Good News that the world doesn't need to be lost any more.
