you've got to be 'outside the box'...

If heaven is everything we could ever want, and death leaves friends and some loved ones behind on earth.. How could this be everything we have ever wanted?.. If our dearest ones are not with us, how could our desire be fulfilled?
This question found roots from a previous post… Let’s explore it more.
We don’t have a definitive answer, but we do have conjecture based on hints revealed to us.

We would be in the Presence of God.. and “God Is”..
Therefore Heaven would feel as ‘Present and Eternal’!
Maybe we’ll see everything as current, or unbound and released from time?

We need to think beyond our normal senses. Perhaps we will see with enhanced eyes instead of the limited ones we have on earth. If we are fortunate to get into Heaven, our understanding will be complete and in union with God and we will understand beyond our earthly capacity. After we pass this veil, all souls will understand and thus no yearning other than God and God’s will, will quench our restlessness. Even the souls in hell, will accept this as they bathe in the burn of God’s love. And this is also a very good reason for the purifying flames of purgatory; to gives us worthiness.

It could be compared with the way a fetus understands the universe of it’s ‘womb’, as compared to not comprehending the outside (or our) universe. In this sense, we are like a baby in the womb… We can’t imagine (as a baby in the womb) what our hands and feet will be used for; and in this vein, perhaps our mind and soul will be more essentially vital than their current restricted uses!

Therefore the earth is a nursery for heaven..
Hopefully our soul is not lost or aborted!
Our physical body is merely the box that our soul comes in..
And we must learn to think outside this box…
