   What is heaven?
  This doesn''t have to be religious, but I am curious as to what you think heaven is or what you want it to be.For me, it be a cottage by the lake, where its warm all year around.  It would be peaceful.  I could do whatever I want.  I would go fishing by the lake, or read a book, or just take a nap under the sun, by the lake.As for people, well, I guess I can invite whomever I want for brief stay, if they want.  I would probably live with my wife since I would probably only marry a girl who has similar taste as mine.I realize that I can achieve this in my lifetime, but I doubt it.I don''t know about having a computer though, I guess I would want one, but I doubt I would spend as much time on it as now. 
  [WARNING: Deep meaningless thought ahead]I''ve learned that every story has to have conflict in it to keep the reader interested.  If heaven is what it is said to be, conflict-free, I think it would get quite boring after a while. ;quote:Original post by Rob Loach  [WARNING: Deep meaningless thought ahead]I''ve learned that every story has to have conflict in it to keep the reader interested.

I''ve noticed that real life seldom has a coherent plot. ;  It''s where we are ment to go, the place where we were built to live in now and forever after. ;quote:Original post by bigbadboo  I am curious as to what you think heaven is or what you want it to be.Much like now, but without the shit.Concise, ain''t I?  Jesus saves ... the rest of you take damage."A page of history is worth a volume of logic." -- Oliver Wendell Holmes;  for me, heaven would be 74 deg F weather year round, on the beach. The clear, blue beach, like in Miami or the Carribean. The salt smell of the air. None of this damn snow shit, being all cold like and absolutely nothing like sand.no shoes, no glasses or contacts. just the sand between my toes.A golden retriever at my side. Dogs are the best, even God says so, that''s why He transposed His name for them.no where to go. no obligations. this is probably the most important one. I''m sick of having to be somewhere absolutely all of the time. I want to think for a while.a lounge chair that i can sleep in, all day longah, yes, sleep. the warm embrace of sleep.a laptop computer with an atomic power supply (a guy can dream), and wifi networking. I would be completely free of wires, with no need for a desk. ever.no paper, except for tons of notebooks full of graph paper. I love graph paper.I would definitely need a floaty thing to lay on in the water, cuz I wouldn''t be able to sleep without something to float on.mmm, sleep.... ;  Oh baby do you know what that''s worth? You make heaven a place on earth. ;quote:Original post by Conner McCloud  Oh baby do you know what that''s worth? You make heaven a place on earth.   yeah, I thought about doing that, but I figured it would look gay. I was right. ;quote:Original post by capn_midnight  yeah, I thought about doing that, but I figured it would look gay. I was right.   If there''s one thing I''ve learned watching years of television, its that chicks love gay guys.  But chicks don''t love graph paper.  You do the math Just to stay on topic, I don''t figure there is a heaven.  What you see is what you get, and frankly, that''s good enough for me.  So really, my original post is as accurate as anything.CM ;quote:Original post by capn_midnight  for me, heaven would be 74 deg F weather year round, on the beach.
