I'm glad Richard - just a sudden thought I had that I wanted to share with my friends on Soup! Thank you for your visit and kind comment. Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.

You are absolutely right, Jenny. What we plant now yields its fruit in the future. ~ Warm regards & hugs // paul

I sometime worry Paul, if I am planting enough to be considered entrance into God's pearly gates! I hope with all my heart that I have, and will probably try harder since I thought of and wrote this couplet. Warm regards and hugs, Jenny

Yes, and our next incarnation probably builds onto this one. So I am going to be more careful starting today. Great advice!

Hi Caren, I'v often had the thought how does one assume that hee/she is going to paradise, I talk of myself of course, one day I will find out, but I can only hope and pray that I do. Love you my friend. Jennifer.

You are so right, Jenn, and with this in mind, it astounds me to see the lives some people lead that is so full of hate. Nicely stated my dear friend. Hugs, John

Hopefully not too many full of hate John, very sad to think some are, but think that hate, revenge, evil and bad all stem from jealousy - the more we practise and advocate kindness, the better our planet will become, and hence the human race and finally each one of us individually. Thank you for your visit and comment dear John, Hugs, Jennifer.

An alternate perspective. Where we end up is as a result of the sacrifice our Saviour made. Therefore thankfulness impacts our behaviour while we are here. I do believe it is important to live a good and kind life, still it does not guarantee us passage to paradise.

'Still it does not guarantee us passage to paradise" Richard, you are so right - we will each be weighed up and assessed thoroughly before such a privilege may come to pass! Apt and thought provoking comment! Hugs Jennifer.

Rich or poor we pass-through the same gate. Depending, yes you are so right, Jennifer..

We take nothing with us Harry, only our souls and spirits which have been an open book to The Almighty from the day we were born! We will all have to wait and see! Enjoy your visits. Hugs, Jenniffer.

There must be some kind of telepathy present on the Soup, some kind of 'wave length.' Just look at what I wrote yesterday, titled "Stairway to Heaven." A bit eerie, don't you think?! Best wishes, gw

I'm on my way to read it! Yes I'v seen a few written in this vein, it is a little eerie, maybe because we are all friends and write poetry we unconsciously think alike - that is a nice thought in fact! Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.

I totally agree, we ought to focus on heaven on earth so we can enjoy the feast when we get to the other side, love it Jennifer. Thanks for sharing, have a great day.

Absolutely no doubt about that, but wonder if only the Mother Theresa's of this world qualify! Just very stressed with business and selling the house - everything seems to come at once! Blessings, Jennifer.
