Nothing is one way or the other, it is "thinking" that makes it so. What makes my life like heaven? My personal relationship with Jesus Christ, my family, my friends, flowers, yes, trees, the clouds, the mountains, the sea, watching a beautiful sunset, the smile on any child's face, a really good cup of coffee and especially ice coffee in the summer, ice cream, funny comedy's, a really good meal, a long drive in the country, days off from work, cooking in my kitchen, listening to my favorite music, sitting quiet, reading my favorite reading material, thinking about life, crisp fall days, watching the snow fall, opening Christmas presents, decorating my house, helping someone else, playing board games, eating fresh fruit, having a good cry, petting my cats, sitting in my favorite chair, drinking out of my favorite coffee mug, talking on the phone, my list probably could go on forever. What is hell on earth? Feeling disconnected to God. I am powerless over all the evil but I get a choice every morning if I will live in heaven or hell for the day, then I choose. Granted there are some days hell is thrust upon me but I can start my day over at anytime. I think we are human to learn lessons. When we're done it must he one doozy of a quiz. Hope this helped.

Well the beautiful thing is it's only a temporary existence, but it was a choice to incarnate here for the challenge and the gaining of experiences only earth life and being human can offer. As an eternal being imagine the level of gaming we may partake in compared to being human and playing XBOX games, the concept is the same but on a much much much more sophisticated level. 1. you have to be born with no memories of true self, as an eternal being you have no higher abilities because earth bodies where created for slavery which makes you mortal, who know's how random it is for which type of family or race or social standing you may end up in. Think about it 50-70 years in this existence is a fraction of a blink of an eye compared to forever. I also understand that we incarnate simultaneously perhaps a 1000 times throughout all time periods so you get to play/experience just about everything. This may sound fantasy, but if you really think on it, it will make perfect sense, one just has to search deep and one will begin to remember why they are here. It's a game, all the ugly or beauty is all part of the experience, there is no right or wrong, just experience, and it's set to end very soon. The game has been in operation for over 4.5 billion years, the spirit which animates earth will be graduating to higher levels of different experiences and so will a few of the rest of us. There is another planet designated in this galaxy for continued gaming experience, apparently it won't be as F@#$% as this one but it will have its challenges. Hope this helps, or at least offer you a different perspective to think on.

The fact is that life is what you make out of it -- the onus is purely on an individual, whether the person wants to let it blossom or make a mess out of it, although situations and ur responses play a great part in where you eventually land.
As for heaven and hell, I think u get to see all of it in ur lifetime on this very earth and what they say about going to heaven/hell after death, its all IMO hogwash, the situations -- bad or good -- you eventually face in ur lifetime are what make heaven or hell....and also, every creature who comes onto this earth is borne with a special purpose... nothing happens in this universe without a purpose and the Almighty has pre-ordained whats gonna happen in the next moment, so its all pre-decided and we, the lesser mortals, are mere putty in the hands of destiny, although its purely up to us what we make of a given situation.
People fear death as its unknown, whatever is not known brings in you a sense of dread, unless you are brave or foolish, and also people are afraid of loosing their loved ones and possession.. but death is one great leveler... be it a king or a pauper, everybody eventually lands at its door.
As for the prevailing situation -- the types that u have mentioned, they were always there, its just that with the advent of Internet and means of faster communications, these things have been brought to fore... so we feel that oh, the situation is becoming worse, but you have to also look at the brighter side... people have become more knowledgeable, more people around the globe have a better chance of improving their and their loved ones lives . Also, its ur personal attitude that can make you see things either in a positive or negative way, but I must say that nothing is perfect and everything has its good or bad aspects, its just that we concentrate on what we want to perceive it as.

Well, although hell and heaven each have the luxury to take sides, here on earth you have both. People have both sides in them. Like the game of chess. If you do not have one of the sides, the game does not exist. We are in the middle, always seeking balance between good and evil. And good and evil inside one person can lead him to do good, while in other persons, it leads him to do evil. However, good cannot exist without evil. You would not have what to compare it to. Could you apreciate a beautifull day if you never had the chance of seeing a bad one?. We need evil as much as we need good. The world is a very beautifull place with a lot of good in it. Life through bad things, shows us in fact...which people are good, and which are bad. It gives us a chance to show our true nature. Depends on how you see the situation. We usually look at the glass half empty. Rarely do we see the good part of life. They are both there...good and evil alike...but we only focus on one (evil) and take the other for granted.

the world was a very beautiful thing but when greed and money came out, it was over. we want money because without it we would think it wasn't fair to give a gift and not take anything back, so we paid for it. you should like being human because their is so many things that we can do and people take that for granted. this is why we have wars and poverty. it's survival of the fittest. evolve and survive or die and suffer. you shouldn't complain but look at the good things in life that humans could not destroy.

Nope, no longer constrained to existence in the international. that ought to easily be a evaluation or an exaggeration better wisely that individuals pick to be counted upon even as sharing about their existence memories. Heaven is amazingly God's area and free from sin. References of Hell are contained in the Bible in case you would pick to benefit them. in my view, i'd quite concentration on the eternity to be spent with the Lord when you pick Him in this existence. advantages

We can make it beautiful, one day at a time, one thing at a time and it is only through human life that you can attain salvation, for you feel the impact of your deeds through understanding, suffering, pain and sorrow, joy and happiness of others and self.

Do not be Ruled by your fears. Open your eyes, walk out the door, get out of your COMFORT- Zone. THINK. Use your mind, look at the earth, moon and the stars, ask questions participate get involved, get out of your COMFORT-Zone. Quit being ruled my your neuroses and participate and contribute something with your life ! It's EASY to be whine, it takes effort to contribute.

Your life is what you make it. I choose to live on the positive side of life. Yes, I know there are some really negative things going on. I simply choose not to dwell on the negative.
