Heaven is ........................

I've posted this before, but here it is again.

Heaven is where
The cooks are Italian
The police are British
The lovers are French
The mechanics are German
And the Swiss keep the whole place running.

Hell is where
The cooks are British
The police are German
The lovers are Swiss
The mechanics are French
And the Italians keep the whole place running.

Something like that, anyway,

Like Paradise Lost?

Heaven is different for everyone. For me the would be warm summer weather, freedom from stress, good health and good company.

I don’t know about Paradise Lost. Maybe that’s a part of heaven that I’ve not been to yet. But summer’s just begun, my health is fine and although I’m alone, I’m in good company still. Maybe I’m in heaven right now. Life hasn’t felt this good since yesterday. You have an eye for beauty, a very keen eye too. You’re kind to share your finds with us. When I sleep, that’s heaven for me.

Paradise Lost was a book by John Milton about Lucifer and the fallen angels and how they planned to upset mankind after their defeat and expulsion from heaven. Lucifer said the power of the mind was capable of making a "heaven of hell or a hell of heaven". This would indicate heaven is a state of mind as opposed to a state of condition. But I think condition can weigh in heavily depending upon the individual. Like me for instance. :giggle:

And thanks for the compliment.

Thank you too, for your kind and thoughtful response. Beauty is more easily photographed than kindness, it seems but both give me a nice feeling whenever I encounter them. So, you've helped me start my day off on a pleasant note with a taste of each. Many times I've heard Paradise Lost mentioned but it's not something that I've ever taken the time to read. But the day isn't over so maybe I can at least take a peek. I'm sure that I'll make time to view some more of your beautiful pictures. You have quite the collection but it's nice and relaxing to see nice things. That's why I enjoy this website so much. There's so much to see and do here! Feliz dia! 😊
