Fragments of Heaven

What are we really made for?Where are we going after our time here on earth expires?Nobody knows what it feels like to be in heaven and what is heaven per se. Though many great minds and philosophers believe that the existence of heaven is real, speculations of what this 'magical' place is and its existence is still on doubt. Yes! we always fall short in in believing that even religious people sometimes doubt.  And that final question that stirs ordinary people and even great minds, where is heaven?

Visual images and photographs have great role in the perception of what we know. Our understanding of what a thing is, is because of its actual appearance. This is what the dynamism of the world of understanding and intelligence. There is something that tells, 'this thing is what is'. Now, whoever can tell what heaven looks like is a prophet, a someone endowed by a special gift that was handed by a divine intervention. Looking back from what I've studied abstract ideas are completely different from concrete ideas and one that are really hard to resolve. They are things that do not exist nor do they have any resemblance in reality. This makes it hard for us to resolve, and even in cases like God and religion, debates with such ideas. Hence, somehow I believe in what they say that when it comes to topics such as these, debates are endless.
Why I am telling you all of these?Simply because I come to realize that heaven is indeed the final destination that we are going. Ironically, how are we to experience heaven if the only way to experience it is death? This is an essential question that I think skeptics cannot figure out. There is always an experience before an idea to which is contrary to that of the idea heaven.

Personally I believe that we may not experience what heaven is but we can live the memories, the joy it brings and the fulfillment of being alive because all we have here and now are its fragments. Fragments that even you and I have no idea. Blindly, we fail to realize that what we have, what we care for, what we love are undoubtedly, not skeptically, but undoubtedly fragments that we put together as puzzle when we are at the final phase of our destination.

Now, come to think of the people you love and the feeling it brings you. How does it feel when you have person whom you dearly love and treasure? The places you have been through and the people you met are of no accidents. They were sent because they are part of the puzzle, that piece of fragment, that made up the whole. Then you know how readers would react to the climax. The love imparted and joy shared. The burst of laughter that even in a single bit of moment is cherished. Yes!these made up our story as a whole. And your story is one that make the bigger story in the platform that God created.
