Debating Quotes Episode #01


Quote A;

"To appreciate heaven, it's good for a person to have some fifteen minutes of hell." - unknown
---------
I would say firstly, to truly appreciate anything you need to have had and lost it, before you can appreciate it.
As for Heaven and Hell, not sure one place is better or worst than the other (never been there), haven't had any feedback from others either ! :-)

Lets see if I can compare or relate to HEAVEN - HELL.
Noted comparisons are researched topics from the internet.

Origin of Heaven: The sky or the area above the earth where Heavenly Bodies are placed.
Origin of Hell: The area below the Earth's surface or Underground.

-- You who know me, know that I am scared of heights in the worst way and also only fly because I must, for work. When I retire I am driving everywhere.
So not sure the placement of Heaven works for me at this time.
--  Never wanted to be an underground miner, I will stick to any form of surface mining. I could probably get my head around becoming a fossil, that seems to be a cool thing, getting found millions of years later and examined. fun, fun...  
This comparison is too close to call, gonna call this one an even split.
------------------------
Heaven is Place of: Happiness & Peace
Hell is Place of: Pain & Punishment

Not much of a selling point for Hell on this one, Heaven wins hands down.
Heaven is 1 up!
-----------------------

Heaven Climate: Warm and Pleasant
Hell Climate: Hot and Dark

The heat is really bad for my skin, dries it out something fierce. With that said, the more vacations I go on, the more I am enjoying the hot climate and dark nights. So depending on how long I have, I may be ready for some basting.
No clear winner on this one. However, the word Pleasant is always followed by a positive treat.
--------------------------
Heaven's access to: Good humans after their death
Hell's access to: Bad humans after their death

Can't really comment on this, Depends who is the judge at time of entry. If I had to pick my destiny today however, I am thinking I would be stuck in purgatory, they would need to sort through the details and probably try to get outside advice on the verdict. 
To be safe I am packing Nomex coveralls and a flashlight. 
-----------------------
Heaven's Ruler: God
Hell's Ruler: Satan

Hope I am not the only one, but if there is a ruler, it would be more fitting in Hell, would think God would be more a coordinator of events?
I hope we silly humans are just playing on words for this one. Kinda be a cruel joke to be a little goodie-two-shoes all our days; only to be welcomed by a ruler.
I seem to be climbing earth's corporate ladder and in tough decision type of roles, I do have an A-type personality and fairly demanding of myself and others. If I had to pick a stronger ruler candidate and mentor I may find a more experienced ruler in Hell; Just Saying......

After very little debate and even less thought it seems Heaven has an advantage at the end of the day.

Quote B;

If you love something/someone so very much, give it away.
If it comes back to you, it's yours forever.
If it doesn't, it wasn't yours, to begin with."" --- written by ; Who cares?? lol.
------
Unsure about this overused and hopefully not overly practiced QUOTE...
Not sure about you?
But anything I've ever loved and let go wasn't by choice (at least my choice anyway).
Hell, I want back great thoughts the minute I lose them, :-).
God forbid anything or anyone of worth.
You know you are screwed when you need to fall back on a terrible Quote like this to comfort the unfortunate decision you made (or had made for you).
Can you imagine the lives ruined / regrets pondered upon; because of this ridiculous quote.
-- I actually had someone say this to me, lol.. and yes she is wishing she would have just stayed around!!! lol...
We'll get to ego discussions later in my blogging life.
