Thought in the Raw RE: Hell

I don't feel like I need hell (the constructed place of fire/suffering, blah blah) as an impetis to do good or "please God..." I want to follow Him because of His Love for me...I don't ever want His presence in my life, my relationship with Him, to end. I enjoy it. I know I'd be missing out on something fantastic and stimulating and inspiring-it's the lack of that something, that Love that would sadden and curse me.
So my seperation from Him would be hell.

If I am consistant with Hell as seperation from Love, this thought circles...But as hell is also defined in physical terms, darkness/fire/torment, I repeat terminology, however, one is not synonymous with the other...physical vs spiritual...the physical edifice of hell doesn't concern me as much as that spiritual seperation, and without supposing one is without the other, spiritual seperation is the only hell i'm concerned with avoiding....

Death is hell - Life is heaven

Loneliness is hell - Acceptance is heaven

Pride is hell - Love is heaven

Meaninglessness is hell - Purpose is heaven
