Being raised in the Church I've been taught a lot about heaven and God. One thing that both of them have in common is that they last forever. The concept of forever has blown my mind ever since I was young. I've literally never gotten my head around it. As humans, everything we do is bound by the constraints of time, so envisioning something that exists outside the realm of time, kind of breaks our minds. This is one of those ideas that I feel that not many people think about because it seems futile to waste time on something that we feel isn't necessary to think of, due to our existence based on time. But it is interesting to see how our brains try to comprehend concepts that are beyond our own and worthwhile to further our own knowledge. I have sat down on occasions and thought about it, and I encourage that you try it as well, and get lost in the ever-swirling complexity of forever.
