Let me tell you a story.. Are you sitting comfortably?
Once there was a monk who lived his whole adult life in a hole in the ground. He had taken a vow of silence and never spoke. A friend brought him food and water to keep him alive. All day he meditated, thinking about what heaven would be like. He also prayed for anyone who requested to be prayed for.
Eventually, he passed away. An angel came down to take his spirit away, so he asked the angel "Can you show me heaven now?" So the angel shows him great oceans, huge mountain ranges, beautiful rolling hills, vast plains and forests. The monk turns round and says "Wow, that's amazing, is that heaven?"
The angle says "No, that was earth."
Why the hell do people lock themselves in caves in solitary confinement when they should be out enjoying the life that God gave them?!
