Let me get this straight, I am not looking forward to dying and I certainly don't want it to happen anytime soon. But… I do look forward to going to Heaven.
You see, I believe in the Afterlife. I believe that being on this earth is NOT where it ends for us. I believe that our loved ones are in Heaven and are waiting for us to return so we can all be a family again.
I believe we all began in heaven as angel spirits and our spirits were sent to this earth to be born from our “earthly parents.”
I believe we are all our Heavenly Father's children and therefore, we are all brothers and sisters and that Heaven is our Home.
I believe in a Forever that is so astonishingly beautiful, our earthly minds are incapable of imagining how beautiful.
I believe we will see colors that we have never seen before and they will be so beautiful that no words exist to describe them.
I believe we will live in a state of pure happiness, joy, and bliss; there will be no sorrow, no pain, or no tears. We will also be able to feel the pure Love of our Lord, Jesus Christ and of our Heavenly Father.
We will not have the aches and pains that we have on this earth. Our bodies will be young and beautiful again. We will also understand what our purpose was on this earth and we will understand things that we cannot understand as earthly humans.
I believe that my sweet niece, who took her life in October, is in Heaven, and that I will see her again; and I will see my cousin who died when she was 19, I will see my beloved grandmother, and I will see all my loved ones who have passed from this earthly life before me.
I didn't live a plenary life in my younger years. Yet, I know that I am forgiven, and I have been given the awesome Atonement of Jesus Christ. I know I am loved more than I ever thought possible. His Love has embraced me in His Grace and in His Mercy.
This is what I look forward to; Heaven. I don't look forward to the dying process. (As a matter of fact, it scares me). But I do believe when that time comes Jesus will be right there so that I no longer will be afraid.
Daily Prompt: Fast Forward (What do I look forward to?)
Why not work to make heaven on earth?
What makes you think that I am not?
Post sounds very much like you think of heaven as a place that’s not earthly – and never would be.
In fact, I believe someday there will be a heaven on earth, but I believe that at this time, it is not. And yes, I believe, we all should try and make this a heaven on earth. I truly wish it were.

Beautiful … makes me cry. So happy ;D
I am please you liked it, but I don’t want you to cry. 😦
Tears of joy ~ Joy ;D
Oh, okay! LOL! Thank you!

Cry for you Joy fully ;D
LOL! Thank you!!

I know you will see them (your family) there (in heaven)…it’s almost 2:00 this time, figured I would clarify lol.
LOL! You are funny! Right now, it is 6:56 am. 😀

When I commented, it was 1:45 a.m. No seriously, I was just going to write “I know you will see them there” but then I remembered your comment on the other post and started doubting myself. So I wrote it out in parenthesis to make sure I understood it. Lol.
I didn’t realize it was 2:00 am! Did you not sleep well last night or do you normally stay up that late?
>
I sleep off and on. Like I’ll sleep for 2 or 3 hours and wake up. Then it takes me a little bit to be able to go back to sleep again, also for 2 or 3 hours. For some reason my body won’t let me sleep more than that. Usually I wake up hurting, but sometimes not.
That must be terribly frustrating! Can they not give you something that will help you sleep all night?

I have been meaning to ask but keep forgetting. I have an appointment with the GP on Friday, so I’ll see about asking him
Yes, do! That will help improve your life.

I have one medicine that helps me get to sleep if I need it, but does nothing to help me stay asleep. Do they make one for that? I guess I need to research before I go.
Yes, they do. They may try you on a lower dose of one kind and see if it helps you, and then up the dosage, or they may try another prescription. Just depends on your doctor and what meds he has had the best results with, with his patients.

Thank you very much, my good friend “Joy”. I will make a reminder for that day so that I won’t forget.
Ok! Just call me PJ. :o)

PJ works just fine! 😀
Love you! Hope you are having a great Sunday!
