Dear Reader,
Sometimes, I wish I could be a cat. Or just a bird ... If I had to choose I'd be an owl . I don't know... many people feel being human is so great. I beg to differ. We are confined in a prison, with rules made by other men, who called it their own land because their flag reached it first. Why do we live in a society where we are told how to act, think, dress and even believe. We have false leaders who promise a better day, yet we remain the same or slowly decline. We have neighbors who smile but carry a giant knife behind their back waiting for the opportune moment to strike. If we were birds our only concern would be to soar through the sky, eat the food the world provides, and live in such a balance we can never imagine as human beings. Why do we as humans destroy everything we touch? It's so disgusting to see... and the worst part is , we worry too much about our own life to even care for anything else. Our heart doesn't have any room left for fickle desires to help the world. Perhaps Heaven is different. Much different. A place were there is perfect balance... Soaring through the heavens... Imagine what heaven would be like.
This empty space, filled with gas giants and planets a like may just be the tip of the ice berg. Perhaps heaven is beyond what we can even perceive. Just like how to an ant, the beach is the equivalence to the universe. The ant could never see the ocean for what it is, they are much to small for that... but imagine if heaven is the same way... if we were big enough, we might see the whole picture. A brand new ocean, a brand new world... what if the universe is merely just molecules for a simple rock in heaven...
The greatest part of heaven would be the changed people. The thing people enjoy the most in this world is the company of good people. You can be in paradise, but if you don't have people to share it with , it isn't the same... So heaven, like wise. Imagine heaven is a wondrous place, beyond belief, but you have no one to meet to talk to. Sounds like a beautiful hell to me.
So... The greatest aspect of heaven would be that it would be filled with wonderous people. People of all ages... who will look at you as their own brother. They will have no malicious intent, and would have nothing but love for you, and you them. They would freely tell you their stories, and you would freely listen and enjoy it dearly. Imagine the soft talks you would have with a person in jesus' time. Listening to their testimonies , and their trials and how they overcame them. And those who have been there for a longer time would show you the tricks of heaven lol. And the things you discover in heaven would be endless... each and everytime you would be amazed... and filled with utter amazement and wonder. First they show you flight... Flying in the sky at will. Then swimming to the depth of the ocean filled with wondrous animals God created for his own personal collection. Who knows. I long for heaven... I am so thankful our father in Heaven do not look at my good deeds, but rather in the faith in Christ a lone. I hope to see you brothers and sisters in Heaven one day, and If I am to go first, I will learn all the cool tricks and teach you all :).

Such beautiful thoughts, I imagine heaven in a similar fashion, I'm sure it will be oh so peaceful all the time and like a peace we've never known. Cascading endless waterfalls, with water the perfect temperture. Rainbows with colors so beautiful and vivid we couldn't even fathom it here on earth. People would love eachother and accept eachother wholeheartedly and without question. We would totally see beyond color, color would not be an issue in heaven. We would see beyond the limitations of the physical and see the heart instead. We would be free from all the heavy baggage that we carry here on earth.
ReplyDeleteAll this talk of heaven makes me want to go like now~I hope to see you there and maybe you can teach me some of those cool tricks~ lol
:) I like your thoughts Tenchi. It's cool to know that a lot of other people have deep thoughts and that it's not all about the way things appear on the surface. I like how you cut into the cake to show what it contains rather than just looking at the way it looks.
ReplyDeleteI really enjoy reading your blog the few times I pass by here, it has a lot of deep, insightful things it touches upon.
Once again, a great post.
Lovely:) you know what I really did have visions like that too, well the last part of what you wrote anyway, about the sky and the ocean.
ReplyDeleteOn another note though, I also used to look negatively upon many things in our society. I mean this aspect hasn't changed too much, but I am allowing myself to see the positive things that are happening in this world. Unfortunately, we are slapped in the face with so much of the negative that a lot of times we fail to see the potential in this world. Keep our hearts and minds above what society throws at us.
..sorry I digress haha, anyways beautiful images to take away from this Thanks Tenchi:)
Wow this similar to how I see heaven, or am starting to think of it. I've always thought the traditional "fluffy clouds, and long robe dress things." However, now that I think about it I think heaven would be a place where everyone is called family. We are stripped from our worldly prejudices. We would be able to communicate on an spiritual level with all of God's creatures(I believe that God gave everything a soul). I hope we can fly. ^^ that would be so cool!!! Also if I were an animal...I'd want to be a shark. I don't know why, but I find them so majestic and beautiful.
