My definition of HELL

Growing up a Catholic, I was taught that hell was a firery place, filled with the souls of damned people and ruled by this dude called Satan, who took pleasure in tormenting you for all eternity. I've since come to view hell as here on Earth, being trapped in a place, or situation one does not wish to be. My friend once commented, "Hell is sitting in your boxers at 2 in the morning, bowl of cereal in lap, channel surfing, trying to figure out where your life went wrong". I couldn't agree more and that statement , those clear words of wisdom, has become a sort of anti-mantra, what I wish to avoid at all cost. I will seek, and I will find, HEAVEN on this Earth, in this lifetime.
