Heaven on Earth
What constitutes "heaven on earth" for you?
Is it a peaceful night with a full moon, love by your side, and the promise of tomorrow?
or something as simple as enough income to pay the bills due next week?
could it be a place? or maybe all of those combined?
My heaven on earth this October 2006 was a road in the Keewenaw, lined with deciduous trees in full fall color, sun streaming through, and the freedom and peace of mind to enjoy it for a few days.
While I stayed there, just west of Copper Harbor, I did not get to see the northern lights, but I did get an incredibly beautiful full moon over Lake Superior.
From day to day, heaven on earth can change. It is a perception of rightness, awe, and an alertness, I think, to the blessings just waiting there for us to see. A brilliant red leaf. the warm touch of a new potential partner--hope personified, I think. the smile of a grown child enjoying a professional achievement. waves and wind.
not a day in this place--this heaven on earth, however you define it--should be missed.
