If you read Lovely Bones, you'd know what I'm talking about (sort of). Heaven's supposed to be a perfect place, isn't it? For everyone. Do you think we'd all have our own little heaven? Or is it not so accomodating?
Feel free to spit bible verses. I actually want to hear it for once.

I think it's how people define the meaning of heaven.
Some people believe that you would stay beautiful or young forever which include nice skin looking.
We all have different creative beliefs about "Heaven".

You should... it's a good book. But I don't really read much, so don't take my word for it.
Wouldn't it be great if our belief on it was how it really was... Haha. In that case, I want Brad Pitt covered in cheesecake serving me grapes all day.

i loved that book...i haven't read it in awhile though. fantastic read though
i don't really believe in the whole heaven thing. i believe in reincarnation but like if we do go to heaven it'd be cool to a certain extent...because what if the people you want to see don't want you to be in their heaven?

That's what I'm afraid of. Or like... I doubt all the people you hold dear will have that kind of faith... given it exists. How could it be a perfect heaven if someone you love, isn't there?
It wouldn't matter, right? That's the theory... that all that should matter is that you spend eternity worshipping God, and that should be enough.
It's not enough.

Well, the Bible says that once you reach heaven, the things you have established on earth (relationships) won't really matter. No tears, no pain, no fear..

hmm people could go both ways on this.
it's another thing know one will ever know unless they can talk to the dead.
that's just like people saying that you see a white flash of light before you die. they know this how because theyre not dead.

That makes everything else seem so pointless, though. Haha.

I think that heaven is what we make of it. Or, whenever the happiest time of your life was, you are in heaven at that time. Whatever makes you happy is heaven, your heaven. That's why (I think) everyone's heaven would/does differ. The Lovely Bones was a great book too. I really like the quote thing on one of the first pages, about the snowglobe on her father's desk and the perfect world. Great book.
