I'd hate to think of living forever in a place that would drive me bonkers in the long run.

Beauty without the suffering, skydiving without the fear of death or injury. <BR/><BR/>My thought is that the same God who made us want to chase after that thrill isn't going to expect us to sit on a cloud and strum a harp, kwim? That's some Hallmark card writer's stereotype.<BR/><BR/>And I hope--I really do hope--that part of God wiping every tear from our eyes will take away the pain and anger I still hold towards those who've hurt me and those I love.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08599641879134345180noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2603934846782965185.post-86847554048051625932009-03-26T13:48:00.000-07:002009-03-26T13:48:00.000-07:00I have to say, I've always been more afraid of hea...I have to say, I've always been more afraid of heaven than the alternate of wanting to go there. I dunno why.<BR/><BR/>Firstly, it doesn't sound like much fun. I don't want to praise, preach and be peaceful like forever and ever. I want to ski, skydive and all that jazz, you know? <BR/><BR/>The idea of sitting around blissfully, loving all those people that I don't particuarly like who also ended up in heaven? It gives me the heebie-jeebies. I'd rather be given the opportunity to be a ghost and do some hauntings. <BR/><BR/>And then have you ever wondered if all your ex's and your dh's ex's were to end up in heaven how in the world THAT works out? If anyone can be forgiven and go to heaven, how do I know I won't live next to Charles Manson or something?<BR/><BR/>I don't know. Heaven is sort of an elusive biblical topic for me as I can't seem to wrap my mind around it the right way. It scares me more than encourages me.Mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06819838818540100015noreply@blogger.com
