HEAVEN AND HELL ARE NOT PLACES, THEY ARE STATES OF MIND!
from Extraordinary Healing, by Art Brownstein, MD, page 97
Many people with serious illnesses have reported significant improvement in their health when they improve their socializing skills. these activities have included visiting with friends, or participating in some kind of volunteer community-support work, either at a day-care center, a senior center, a hospital, or some other charitable organization.
Well known doctor and author Dr. Bernie Siegel tells a story to help illustrate this point. He tells of a special pass he got from God to visit both Heaven and Hell. In Hell, he saw many bowls of hot, steaming soup being served with long necked spoons. This soup didn't look too bad until he realized that the hungry people in Hell were unable to feed themselves because the necks of their spoons were too long, and they kept missing their mouths with the spoonfuls of soup. When he got to Heaven, he was surprised to see the same bowls of soup and the same long-necked spoons. However, upon closer observation, he saw that the people in Heaven had learned to place the spoons in each others' mouths, so that everyone got fed.
