What If?

 
What if you died and went to Heaven and when you got there and were checked in you went into a room and all your former Earth friends were there, greeting you with handshakes, hugs and big smiles and you thought, 'Hey this is alright.' There were big windows to a sunlit pastoral countryside that made you feel all yellow and warm and welcome. 
And you found a really nice plush chair, and they served you fresh tea and fancy cakes and you started reminiscing about all the fun times you had with them over the years. 
 
And they kept bringing up old escapades and you all laughed and it was so warm and nice and you felt so good about seeing them again. Each one had a wonderful memory to chat about, and loved being in Heaven. And after a while you all got a little tired and went to sleep with a smile and pleasant visions to dream on.

And you woke up the next day and headed down the hallway into the room and there were all your friends again, smiling like before and making tea again, with those lovely cakes and that cozy chair. And one of your friends said, "Do you remember that time when you ..."  and as she spoke you thought, 'Hey that's what she said yesterday.' and then you realized that everyone else was also exactly the same, and going through the same talk and motions as yesterday. 
And you began to wonder and wanted to ask a question and ... then you got tired and went to bed again.

And then you woke up on your second day in Heaven and went to the same room and that chair and everything was the same again and your friends said what a nice visit that was yesterday and then talked about a memory that they talked about the day before while bringing you your tea and cakes. And telling you how much fun it is to recall things. 
 
 
 And you got tired again and went to bed.
 
 
 
And then woke up. And went to the room. And there they were. Waiting.
 
 
What if that was Heaven?
