After 70, 80, maybe 120 years, the soul ascends to a place above called Gan Eden, a place of ecstasy as great as the soul can receive without dissolving into the void.
And what is that delight that is so overwhelming? No more than a trickle of the pleasure G-d received from this soul when it turned to Him and began to shine with good deeds in its place below.
