I know one thing sprint, the christians win the best heaven award.
In Islam heaven you can't even get a beer, that sounds more like the other place to me.

On a serious note, I believe that most religions do not really understand the true concept of heaven and hell.
They externalise these concepts as something outside of their lives, to be aspired to, or worked toward in another life.
This attitude causes them to diminish their ability to truly find heaven, as a state of fulfillment, and contentment, in this life, which I believe is what the great philosophers were alluding to.

The world is, and always has been, filled with more beauty and joy than any man can experience, and also full of more horror and despair than any man can cope with.

A well balanced person will try and ground their perspective, in the knowledge of these two factors in their existence, and try not to focus entirely on one or the other.

We are daily presented with a cavalcade of woes in our media, which tends to lead many to allow the negatives in life to consume them.

A hug from someone you love, a smile from a stranger, a kind word, an act of charity, a piece of art, a beautiful sunrise, all things like these, allow us to experience the positives of life.

Personally, my idea of heaven is fostering a state of mind where I am truly receptive to these positives, and am able to appreciate them as the greatest gifts this world can bestow on us.

I liked the old ones that had chunks of caramel. They don't make those any more and the strawberry classic and vanilla bean versions are pale imitations of the older style.

The new caramel truffle ones you get in multipacks from the supermarket are ok, but not as good as the originals. It's a good job they brought them out, because I was just on the point of organising a noisy demonstration outside the Nestlé factory.

I only have one per week, and Heaven ice-creams are about the nearest I get to drugs of any kind.

Heaven wil be like that field when you were young.

The grass was calf high, spongy as wool, sky was clear and blue, not too hot.
A light wind wafting around.

Heaven is on the other side of the fence where the grass is greener.

Even though so many of us don't really believe in Heaven, in the back of our minds we still foster an image of what it will be like when we die.  

I'd like to think that if Heaven exists that when I arrive I will be 20 years old again and all my old friends and animals will be there to greet me, but I'll still have the power to be a guardian angel to my children and any offspring they might have.

I also agree with Mozzaok that we should try to develop a state of mind where we are receptive and appreciative of all the little positives in this life and like Sprintcyclist I hope that:

Heaven will be like that field when you were young.

The grass is calf high, spongy as wool, sky was clear and blue, not too hot.

A light wind wafting around.

Sounds good - being a Christian, you could almost look forward to dying.

I don't care, I never got an invite.

I will just make do with my hedonistic ways on earth as my proxy heaven.

Dunno 'bout that.  I know lots of aged people who have had enough of this Life, for one reason or another.
