Heaven: Personal Perseption about Religion

Religion has become part of a life style to fill the emptiness that we have as humans, although is more than just that. Even if we don’t believe in any religion we know that there is something bigger than us, it can be science, a plant, or even an animal that we could consider the superior power. Sometimes it cannot be explained with words because is like the air we can feel and we know is there, but we can’t see it. Every opinion or fact always creates a belief, and a controversy. The fact that religion it’s so important to society created different opinions about it and disagreements. There are many types of religion all around the world and each one have different beliefs and perceive life differently.

Each perception of heaven is based on our physiological and spiritual emotions. Nobody really knows what would happen after death, we can only make assumption and have faith. Despite our beliefs in science, religion, or heaven I think every human being should live a moral life with good ethics because even if there’s no heaven we will still rest in peace if our lives were good examples to others.
