Everybody Wants To Go To Heaven,But, Nobody Want's To Be Dead

EVERYBODY WANT TO GO TO HEAVEN
                BUT NOBODY WANT TO BE DEAD

Everybody in GOD’S green earth want’s to join the Creator
	in heaven also known as Paradise, 
They want to join their ancestor’s in the land of Milk and
	Honey where there is an end to all time and space.
Life would change drastically, as an entity has no limits no
	constraints and hopefully we become more wise
As an added incentive the problems of life cease to exist,
	there is an abrupt end to the rat race 
We used to know as LIFE.

There is one big problem, one giant hurdle that keeps us
	that keeps us from meeting our Higher Power
We need to end these restraints we call life, there has to be 
	a transition from living to being dead.
As we accept this major barrier that stands in the way of
	this meeting and it  don’t matter when will be the hour
Many people come to the conclusion that heaven is not so	
	Important and that rather than being dead
A life of sin and temptation is a better way to live.
