Heaven or Hell?

When we were younger many of us were told we were going to hell because of a certain way we were acting. Back then I didn't understand the concept of Hell - not that it would have mattered. What I have learned as an adult is Hell is a place of our own making. It is not a place I can be sent or a place where "bad" people go. Hell is the trap we create for ourselves when we live against our own values. Only I, though my own behaviors can lead me to that direction. I believe that in our lifetimes we fluctuate between good and bad, Heaven and Hell - whatever you choose to call it. The key is to find that middle ground. How do I make my own reality one that is pleasurable for me. How do I get myself in situations that go against what I hold valuable to myself? My challenge for you today is to find that middle ground of your own making.
