Going Back Home, Heaven

Back Home

Our home is in heaven. Adam was once in heaven, it is his home, our home, and there we will go back to.

Now, we are traveling. In a strange, add, place, yet seemingly overtime became familiar. So familiar till it get to our own eyes, as if this is the real thing, the destiny, our destination, and we are here already. Yet, behinda the big wall covering our eyes, the bigger, way much bigger reality, heaven. Forgotten, fooled by our own greed. We are forgetful. Things surrounding us, is a slow yet fake fatamorgana. it deluded us, to get sucked and diverted. This journey, is short yet felt so long. Depends on what you do in it. How are you looking at it. How you spend your time and existence. This place happened to be called, Earth. Heaven might be in other kind of planet or it might look like earth-in way much better way. but the reality is, worldly life is only a preview, a glimpse of what you will get in heaven. Imagine you are looking at a wall in front of you with gold and jewelry in fron of it. You are busy collecting them. But you forget, behind the wall, there are unlimited jewelry and gold, where you dont even need to collect, yet it comes to you, you get maximum pleasure and happiness, without even need any effort.

Yet,

Heaven isnt that easy to achieve. Not everyone can have it. Eventhough it’s a home for human, yet you might never ever going back home, or even can not find your way back home. It wont be fair if everyone gets to heaven, because as we know some people not deserved even a sip of coffee. Some people did horrible things, not even sounds like human. So we ourselves even, would complaint, if such kind of person, allowed to be in heaven. That is why, in the Day of Judgement, there will be no complaints, since everything is judged fairly. Not even a single file. There will be only regrets, why dont I do better. But hey, it’s already too late. You’ve been warned before, you’ve been guided, notified, announced, tested, all kinds of guidance, but still you fool yourself.

So,

What to do? What do I have to believe in? Is it even real thing? Oh yeah of course. How? Can you prove that? The time it proved, you will no longer need it. Cause it’s too late. Do you think it’s gonna be fair for someone who did horrible crime, then he died peacefully just like that. Not being punished at all. If he’s not punished here, he must be punished somewhere else. Yeah, hell does make sense. And, will it be fair for someone else to take your sins and then you get away clean? Like having your “God” wipe out your sins, or by confessing to human you considered “holy person”, and then the next day you can do the same crme again, then confessed again, then the sin just disappeared like that, Poof! Oh no, can’t imagine such mechanism. It is not fair. So, what is fairness? Fairness is you own your own good and bad deeds, your actions, your words, everything. Because, really, we know in our hearts, what is morality, what is goodness, what is truth. We all agreed on that. Eventhough you might not like the idea of it.

Then,

How we calculate, and perceive ourselves regarding this? It’s simple actually. But again, you might not like it. We are created, we have home we will go back to. It need effort to go back to that beautiful house. There will be challenge and tests, both could come from misery, sadness, loss, or even joy and pleasures. Our actions and words are the key factor in the calculation. Are you willing to do as you are told, being obedience, and stick to the truth and goodness. Or you will let yourself drown into fake happiness and disbelief. The purpose of God creating us, what is it? Who knows, it’s up to the creator. And we can not assume anthing, cause we are not like Him. But by the evidences that we can see, now, here on earth, we learned that He is The Greatest of all. Imagine, He created sky, stars, ants, us, even ocean, planets, earth rotation, sun revolution. Who can even think about that? is there any human who can do that? ofcourse not, how can a creation similar or even same shape as its creation. That’s just doesnt make sense. And also, He is The Most Gracious, because we are granted many things in our life that maybe we are not even aware or grateful. Breathing, walking in ur two feet, tasting delicious food, traveling over islands, all of it are allowed and even it’s a joyful things. Yes, we happened to get some moments in our life that we considered as tragedy, losing someone we love, lonely, poor, but hey, we came from nothing, if God only wants to punish us by taking our loved ones, who gave that person to us in the first place? If you didnt meet this person, not married to him/her, will you even be aware of the feeling? Remember, you are given a test. A challenge, to test you, do you deserve the eternal joy. Can you make effort and sacrifice to be more wise, untied with wordly life, to be smart, to push down ego, to be better human.

And,

Another important thing is, how can we get back home? Is there any certain criteria? What do I have to do? Imagine you are being judged by your own good deeds. So, bad deeds will be counted as a negative. While good deeds are counted as positive. So, you might wanna have enough goods to make the scale heavier on good deeds, so that you will be able to enter heaven. It is almost to have zero bad deeds, since there are some mistakes we did consciously and unconsciously. In addition, there are so many items of goodness, those are prayers, zakat, and other mecahism. Everything in goodness done by the name of God, is considered as prayers. These all accumulated and hs its own function for our Judgement Day. For example, mandaory prayers are the opening question in our grave-life. It also a door to heaven. Another thing is Qur’an, the Holy Book. Once we enter Judgement Day, it is very hot temperature, as if the sun is exactly above our head. Can you imagine that? And Qur’an will appear as clouds that covers the sunlight and cool down us. These prayers usually we mistaken it as a duty, boring routines, while actually this is for ourselves, for our own sake. It made us easier to get more deeds, ease our way to heaven.

Last but not least,

It’s nearly impossible to explain what’s going on now. But, you might start with asking yourself. Who am I? What am I doing here,on earth? What is the purpose of my life? Where do I go after this, after I die? Start questioning yourself, then seek for the answers, the truth. Use your brain, logic, and heart. Once you finds out the truth, admit it, accept it, for it is your golden ticket to whole bigger reality, than all these fakes. Believe in yourself, that you are going back home, and this maybe years of life, will be worth it, for the eternal later. Regret here, in life, before you regret in afterlife, where there is not going back chance. This is way bigger than ourselves, than everything. Our God is The Greatest of all, and He created you for a reason, for a good reason. Now it depends on us, are we going to do everything it takes to go back home, where the is no sadness, no lack, no poor, nothing bad, or are we gonna dwell in all these fake happiness. The decision is yours.
