This might be my heaven. but I’d need a few fireflies in the distance.

Last week Rick and I finished watching 1883. It’s been a while since I enjoyed a series quite this much. The final scene left me asking, what does my heaven look like? 

I was reminded recently that if I can’t visualize my dreams, I’m not likely to achieve them, a subject I’ve written about under the guise of manifesting. 

This is also a contender.

Elsa, the main character’s words from the final scene in 1883…

There is a moment where your dreams and your memories merge together and form a perfect world.

That is heaven.

And each heaven is unique. It is the world of you. The land is filled with all you hold dear and the sky is your imagination.

My heaven is filled with good horses and open plains and wild cattle and a man who loves me. 

It is always sunrise in my world and there are no storms. I’m the only lightning.

I know death now. I’ve seen it. It had no fangs. It smiled at me. And it was beautiful.

I have been to heaven and it actually looked a little bit like the top photo. I saw my grandmother, my close friend who died by suicide, and Jesus. I am in no hurry to get there. I feel good knowing it will be wonderful.

I love that show! I can actually hear Elsa saying those words. Her voice brought so much calm to me while watching that show. I also would love a few fireflies here and there. That reminds of when we would go to Missouri to visit my great grandma and grandpa. Running around catching them in mason jars. So young, free and innocent. Great memories!
