Heaven...

What is heaven? Is it having everything you want? Is it perfect weather on a perfect day? Is it a bite into creamy milk chocolate? Or is it simply being happy? Whether you are referring to the candy bar you are eating or place you can only pray to end up what is your heaven? When you close your eyes and see the picture perfect place what is it? Who’s there? And is that really where you could spend eternity? In some faiths they believe if you follow certain rules or abide by laws, living a perfect life you will end up in heaven. So I purpose the question, “where is heaven?” someone once told me that heaven surrounds us. I often hear it is above us, above the clouds, above the blue sky. If this is the case I purpose the question, “what is heaven?” According to these answers it is a place. But when I think about heaven it is not so much a place as a state of mind. In fact it is not a place at all rather where our heart is.
