Life in Heaven or Hell?

"People who live in Heaven shouldn't judge those who live in Hell!" 

Who is the author referring to when he/she says "people who live in Heaven?". 

And ... who are "those who live in Hell?".

I wonder, and it disturbs me.

Am I blatantly guilty of passing judgement from the position from which I see myself?   Is this what is being referred to?   Am I viewing others from a position of security, knowing my eternal destiny, content in the present moment. 

Am I seeing, viewing them in ways that falls short of something deemed complimentary.    
Am I judging them for choices made in circumstances beyond their control. 

Am I judging them?

Am I looking down on them? 

Am I slowly and assuredly being transformed into the person I don't want to be?

Am I, are you, are we doing just that?.

If so, how do we stop? 

Any suggestions?

The Beginning of a New Era

"In the beginning ..." No, not that sort of beginning! More like a resurrection. It was 11 years ago (December 30, 2012) that I last wrote expressing my thoughts, and ramblings on topics close to my heart. I'm not sure why I stopped. Maybe it was the passing of our oldest son ... possibly the myriad of significant moments in life. I've really never stopped to think about it. But one thing I am considering, or deep down even know to be! It's time to begin, to breathe from the ashes/ambers into flame, some of the many musings my thoughts contain, concerning an innumerable number of topics. Someone once said: "the end of one era, is the begiining of another." The picture below shows me doing something I'm not known for ... "dancing!". It's been a long time, but just before midnight on December 31, 2023 I decided to get up and dance to Katrina & the Waves singing "Walking on Sunshine." And "it feels good!"
